A Child Called It
By: Dave Pelzer
Dave is one of the main characters. He was a child who got abused. He went to many foster homes, commited a few crimes. He always seemed to keep his head up, even when times were tough.
My favorite part of the book is when he gets burned on the stove by his mother. If though that may sound bad, it was very interesting. I would suggest everyone to read it!
It happens mostly at his house.. In New York.
5 Star Rating
Dave's Mother and Father were also main characters in the story. Dave's Mother was very mean. She made him eat his own vomit. She made him sleep in the garage. She old let him eat scraps of food. The Dad tried his hardest to help Dave. But, when Dave's Mom found out that his father was trying to help, she got mad at him.
This is the BEST book, I've ever read. It's so sad. It makes me realize how great my life is, how much my parents care about me, and how I need to be thankful for what I have. Dave runs away, he tries getting away from his mean Mother. Dave gets burnt on the stove. He get his head shoved into a sink of ammonia. The Mom was nice to Dave in public.. She would pretend to be nice, when someone came to visit too.
''Be thankful for what you have, because there is always someone who has it worst than you.''
