AOK. Item as described, reasonable condition (as described), excellent price, reasonable packing and shipping time, no problems. Thanks. (Sorry, I don't do star ratings when some are automatic, as it's unfair to buyers to have eBay pre-empt any of the scores. You should complain to eBay, as your star ratings would have been very high.) I can't rate the product until I read it. It's unfair for eBay to require a product rating in order to send feedback! The guys at eBay are heavily into control.

  • Great Author

    This was a great book,I have the others that the author wrote and it really opens your mind and heart, and you wonder how such things can happen to a child. He forgives, he tries to blank his past out, and goes on with his life. Constantly he comes up with challenges of his everyday struggles.It is a must read story,to fill you in how a child survives. Wish we could find all the abused children in our world and reach out to help them, before it is to late. Most stay quiet because of their fears. These books are a must read by the Author,Dave Pelzer. So we can tell children, that they are not alone.

  • I Love These Books

    I personally dont have anything negative to say... I've read A Child Called It and The Lost Boy and Loved them! So I saw this one and decided to buy it.. I'm also looking at the others to buy also... I've looked for these books before and couldnt find them in some book stores... I'm happy I can finally keep reading about the life struggle Dave went through... Its just keeps me going when I think I have hard times... Thanks a bunch and keep writing because I'll keep reading...

  • Amazing author!
