A Child Called It: One Child's Courage to Survive
by Dave Pelzer
Depression hurts (12/12/2007)
One day I was sitting in my language arts class and my teacher kept talking on and I was ignoring her. But then suddenly, what she was saying hit me. I paid attention quickly. It was about the book called, "The Boy Named It" and she gave a little description about it. So later after school since I was so interested in the book, I went to the library and checked out the book. As I got through to the end it made me feel depressed and upset that the boy had to go through that kind of life. It makes you fell like that could of been you treated like that. I wish I could of went back in time and changed everything and gave the mother a piece of my mind. The book really made me fell to be grateful of what you have and never take it for granted because that could of been you out there suffering like that.
