    'A Child Called It' evokes a boy's life traspassing from his heaven on earth to his private hell - and his mother is the tourguide. Dave Pelzer writes his own life from the earliest recollection to his present situation with all his ups and downs - but mostly downs. This is because when he was still ...

    I give A Child Called It by Dave Pelzer a 10 because it is a great book but I would of loved to adopt David from his mom. She is the worst mother that I have ever read about. This book is the best book that I have ever read but it is way to sad. Before any children reads this book I prefer them to ...

    A Child Called It is a breath taking book. It shows you how to have hope in life , because seeing what Dave went through, makes you have inspiration to live another day. Because if he can get through his hell anyone can.

    It was very difficult for me to put down this book, as I just could not imagine being forced to live in this way. I found it so touching and so sad, that I just had to read it non-stop. It was very well written and I would recommend this book to anyone. It is well worth the money, but make sure you ...

    This heart warming book is an horrendous true story. Dave was a young child when he was brutally abused by his unfit mother.
    She is one of the most cruel people that I have ever come across in my life whether it be in a book or not. What shocked me the most about this book was the fact that she nev ...

    It is truly awful and saddening to read about this man's childhood, but more than anything I hope that people can find inspiration in Dave Pelzer, A Child Called It.

    No matter how we think we have had a bad childhood or been hard done by there is always someone worse off. Use the book to inspi ...

    Dave Pelzer, A child called It. I started to read it one Sunday morning and finished it 2 hours later after not being able to put it down. The cruelty that Dave Pelzer suffers at the hands of his mother is beyond belief. I have gone on to read all of Dave Pelzers books and believe that he is a tru ...
