A review by roxnn2000
A Child Called "It" by Dave Pelzer

5.0

I found that this book inspired me to see what was really going on around me. I thought my mother was bad, I was really and seriously wrong.

The whole time I was reading this the only thing I could think (and this coming from a 12 or 13 year old girl at the time) was to strangle the mother relentlessly.

Anyone who thinks this book is bad or doesn't like it doesn't understand that for some children this is how life it and they should pick this book back up and see how bad life can be.

I recommend this book to everyone I know and everyone who wants children, has children, or takes care of children. I think that young teens should read this to know that thier lives are not as bad as they think.

This is an inspirational story. I loved it and at the same time never want to read it again because of all the horrors that child had to go through. It was sad and enlightening.

Read it and you'll see what I mean.
