Synopsis:
Dave Pelzer's family was the "Brady Bunch of the 1960's"...that is, before he was abused. A Child Called It: One Child's Courage to Survive showcases Pelzer's emotions, struggles, and courageousness from ages four to twelve. His mother was the culprit of his situation putting him through pain unimaginable to most human beings. From cuts and bruises to being forced to swallow ammonia, Pelzer really did have the will to survive. His next book, The Lost Boy: One Child's Search for the Love of a Family, shows Pelzer's struggle from ages 12-18. His last book, A Man Named Dave: The Story of Triumph and Forgiveness, gives us an idea of how Pelzer never took anything for granted after everything he had been through.
