A Boy Called It by David Pelzer


A Child Called It is a real life true story that is about a boy whose courage is really unforgettable with a lot of determination, which has enabled him to survive life- threatening odds. As a child Dave was brutally beaten and starved by his emotionally unstable alcoholic mother. His mother played tortuous games that left Dave nearly dead. Dave learned how to play his Mother's sinister games in order to survive because she no longer considered Dave a son but a slave, and no longer a boy but an "It." This story is told through the eyes of a child, who will pay any price just to succeed.

I believe this can be found at the school library.


I rate this from 1 to 10......... a 10!!!!!
