I thought the book was well written, everything the good reviews said, but the nightmarishness just made me physically sick to my stomach. It you are a sensitive person I would not recommend this book. Really. Not inspiring at all. Just horrors.

A Child Called "It" by Dave Pelzer is a memoir I read about 8 years ago. I could not put this harrowing book down, Pelzer is a child abuse survivor. He recounts the physical and mental abuse he suffered from the hands of his alcoholic and deeply troubled mother. This book brought me to tears and just broke my heart. I highly recommend this unsettling but important book.

I recently had the displeasure of seeing Mr. Pelzer in person. He has either told his lies so many times that he actually belives them to be true or he is a just a snake oil salesman like so many others in his "profession". Being that he claims to have survived several Mustard Gas attacks(keep in mind that Hitler found this to be to cruel to use on "the enemy", durring WWii, but a mother used it against her own offspring), a stabbing(in person he claimed the wound was in his heart), being burned for "58 seconds"(who is counting while being burnt???)and being beaten daily, while neither his father or brother(s) came to his aid, im guessing that the guy is a complete fake. Either way don't waste your money on this rubbish. dont take my word,look him up on google! --please note these "facts" come from his speach not the book, he may make even wilder claims in print--

This book was unbelievable...I read it in a single afternoon!! Couldn't put it down. In the face of unreal odds, a boy's will to survive in a home so filled with hate and abuse.

This is the story of David. A little boy who started out with what seemed to be the perfect family. Gradually as his mother starts drinking more and more, she ends up not caring about herself and feeling angry all the time. That anger was taken out on David. Through this book you read about the horrific things that his mother did to him and how his will to survive kept him going. This book made me cry, made me angry and most of all made me think. I know a lot of people do not believe his story. But before you have doubts, read his books "The Lost Boy" and "A Man Named Dave" and then read his brothers book "A Brother's Journey" and decide for yourself.
