Dave Pelzer's The Lost Boy is an excellent book. He goes from 10 different foster homes from the start of the book to the end. He overcomes the odds and becomes a pilot in the U.S. Air Force. For a kid who was beaten what a way for his life to turn out become a pilot in the U.S. Air Force and he got his G.E.D. and now he teaches kids what to do with child abuse cases and he has a family of his own.

I read two of Dave Pelzer's books and I tohught that both were EXCELLENT!!!Dave you are an AMAZING human being and I respect you with all of my heart!!! I never realized what child abuse can do to a person nor did I know how incredible the human spirit can be!!! Dave, your courage has inspired me very much and I love the way you write, you have such skill and grace that it blows me away!!!
I only wish Dave, that you could know how much you mean to me!!!!I also think that its very compelling that you have dedicated your life to help others!!!

Dave I wish you the absolute best that life has to offer and God Bless you!!!

Sincerely
Danielle Miller

unbelivable these books are. this was an exellent ending to two exellent books. David Pelzer..... hats off. My heart goes out to you.

I've read A child called it and The lost boy and both books are the saddest books I've ever read. I cried so much. I Love both of the books they are great. Dave I admire you you are such and inspiration.

I read A child called "it" in my reading class. I thought it was so sad and the things that happened made me cry and relize how good my life is. After reading that book, my mother took me to the store and I bought The Lost Boy (which so far is also very amazing). Then a few days later I ordered A man named Dave. I have not yet got to finish the second one (The lost boy) so I have not got to A man named Dave. I hope your life is going good with your wife and son.
