A Child Called It: One Child's Courage to Survive
by Dave Pelzer
People Lie (5/24/2009)
This book so smacks of inauthenticity that I googled it to find what I suspected would be factual disputes. I did. Read "Dysfunction for Dollars"; This guy is a charlatan.

As a teacher, I know that some kids lie like crazy, and get away with it. I'm appalled that any teacher would use this in a classroom. I hope that the truth will come out in time. I also find it disturbing that so many take it in as truth without better evidence or research.

This book was not originally published by a reputable publisher. Perhaps none could verify the"facts" that appear in it.
