A harrowing, yet inspiring true story of a young boy's abusive
childhood, from internationally bestselling author Dave Pelzer.
Dave Pelzer was brutally beaten and starved by his emotionally
unstable, alcoholic mother - a mother who played tortuous,
unpredictable games. She no longer considered Dave a son, but a
slave; no longer a boy, but an 'it'. His bed was an old army cot in
the basement, his clothes were torn and unwashed, and when he was
allowed the luxury of food it was scraps from the dog's bowl. The
outside world knew nothing of the nightmare played out behind
closed doors. But throughout Dave kept alive dreams of finding a
family to love him. This book covers the early years of his life
and is an affecting and inspirational book of the horrors of child
abuse and the steadfast determination of one child to survive.
