About this product

Product Information

A CHILD CALLED IT is Dave Pelzer's story of a child beaten and starved by his emotionally unstable, alcoholic mother: a mother who played torturous, unpredictable games that left one of her three sons nearly dead. Dave was no longer considered a son, or a boy, but an 'it'. His bed was an old army cot in the basement and when he was allowed food it was scraps from the dog's bowl. Throughout, Dave dreams of finding a family to love and care for him. THE LOST BOY is the harrowing but ultimately uplifting true story of Dave's journey through the foster-care system in search of a family who will love him. A MAN NAMED DAVE is the gripping conclusion to this inspirational trilogy. With extraordinary generosity of spirit, Dave takes us on a journey into his past. At last he confronts his father and ultimately his mother. Finally, Dave finds the courage to break the chains of the past and learn to love, trust and live for the future.

Unbelievably sad... A massively tragic but inspiring true story
An incredibly sadly disturbing book that made me move from sadness, to anger at times. Was, at the time, the worst case of child abuse in the countries history. How he even survived, let all to succeed to become "An man called Dave" is beyond incredible. IWon't say more or will spoil it. Have a box, it two, of tissues on hand. I leant this to a friend who lost it. Have bought again as it's one of those books you will likely want to keep forever. I bought because of my own childhood but wow, even I was shocked. When you hear people give excuses for their behaviours as adults, and blame their childhoods, I think of this survivor, no wrong word, he did not just survive. No more or it will spoil it

I bought this Bookset Trilogy as a gift for my "special" daughter several years ago because she is adopted. She enjoyed it so much she recommended that I purchase it for myself. I always enjoy Autobiographies and I have finally gotten around to doing so and looking forward to some quiet "me" time to read it.
