Finding Yourself...

"The Lost Boy", Dave Pelzer
Pages 1-32

The book that I am reading is "The Lost Boy", based on the author's life as a boy. It is the sequel to "A Child Called IT". This book is about David and his abusive alcoholic mother. David wonders why his mother treats him the way she does. He is brainwashed into thinking that he is a "bad boy". His mother refers to him as "the BOY". She makes him eat out of garbage cans and beats him badly for no reason. Even locking him in the bathroom afterr she is done cleaning with strong chemicals that can be dangerous if inhaled. Reading this book is hard at times to read beacuse its hard to believ that the story is real., and that the mother of her own child can be so evil torwards him. It's hard to put the book down. It feels as if im in the book watching what is going on. So far the book is very interesting and I'm looking forward to reading this novel.
