A Child Called It
A Child Called It: One Child's Courage to Survive
by Dave Pelzer
Wow... (9/30/2007)
Well...heh this book hit me in several spots. It was very emotional and it impacts you so much that it'll make you cry every time you think of how horrible that would be. Just think about how grateful we should be when we compare ourselves to David Pelzer. I am very sorry for what he has been through. Now there are a couple reasons why I gave his book a 3 rating. One he uses very simple sentences and doesn't EXPLAIN! He must explain why his mother got so angry so suddenly and why his father totally rejected him when, I am sure, he could have done so much about it. I just wish he told more and then it would one of the greatest book I would have ever read. But other than that I can't wait to read the rest of the series!
