Synopsis
In 1995, Dave Pelzer published his horrifying memoir, A CHILD CALLED "IT" about his excruciating abuse by his mother. Now his younger brother, Richard, tells the story of what happened when Dave was removed from the household by social services and Richard was cast into a similar role as slave, object, and victim. With a surprising absence of rancor, Richard Pelzer writes graphically not only about the things that were done to him but about the outrageous failure of his father, brothers, neighbors, and "the system" to do anything about it.

    A great book about a man's true life story about his horrible abusive childhood that he and his brothers had to endure. You can't read this book without reading his brother's books starting with "A Child Called 'IT'". These are riveting and moving stories about how a child endured thru great stress and abuse during his growing up years. After reading this and his brother's books you'll never be the same and will never be able to look at children around you the same again. It helps you become more aware of child abuse and its signs. You can hardly put this book and the others down once you start reading them because they are so heart-gripping. Don't miss the opportunity to read this book and Dave Pelzer's books.
