Sad but poorly written
Very sad true story of horrific abuse, but I am not a fan of the writing style. It jumps all over the place and lacks real depth. I found it hard to really connect with the story.

One of the best books i ever read
The descriptions were so real you felt as if you lived thru the pain yourself. Its a definite must read along with the rest of the series. But this book was the best of them all.

Great
This is a wonderful book and a must read. I am kind of dissapointed that he lost his trust in God more than once but in the end im almost positive that dave found God again. This book has details thay you can't even imagine. How she beats him and how she tourtures him is so sad. This is a great book but get ready to experence what he went through. And yes this book is 10 dollars but think of it as if you wanted to buy it in a store it would be about $15 so you would save about $5. Again it is a must read!!!!

Heart breaking
This book has really touched me. I am a victim of child abuse but i never could dream of the things this man went through. I just wonder how many children are living in homes like this and cant get lucky enough to get out.

A Child Called It
This is a great novel, full of suspense and horror at what one human being is capable of doing.

Recommended if you can handle it.
This book was hard to read. I can't believe this poor child went through so much abuse unnoticed. It broke my heart to imagine his pain, loneliness, and helplessness. This poor child, I want to reach out and save all of them. God bless you David for being strong enough to survive.

It still proves the point
For me this book was very intriguing and I found it an easy read. The one thing I did not like was that the book begins with how he was able to escape his mother and from there goes into the beginning of it all. Although this is a good way to structure a book,I would prefer to know the happy part at the end.
In 'I Know Why A Caged Bird Sings' by Maya Angelou she begins the book at the very beginning of the stream of important events in her life. But, in 'A Child Called It' by David Pelzer he goes almost completely opposite by starting with the ending result. Also, the events are all almost completely separate by the chapters that are each focused on different events. Although it was a little mixed up in structure each event proved a vital point in the story, that his mother was a psychotic woman that abused her child for no reason.4 out of 5 people found this review helpful.

It's as beautiful as it is horrifying.
I cannnot describe to you the horrors of what this young child went through. My emotions were mixed during this; I felt like crying, screaming, vomiting, laughing, and, at some points, I was very close to throwing my nook at a wall so I wouldn't have to read on. But I did, and I will never regret it.
