A Child Called It

By: Dave Pelzer

Reviewed by Francis

            This book is nonfiction as it is about the author’s childhood. He was beaten by his alcoholic mom, and she sadistically liked to play games with him that left him nearly dead. His mom no longer considers him a son. My favorite quote from this book was, “The challenges of my past have made me immensely strong inside.” I recommend this book to anyone who likes to read nonfiction books. This is a good book but also sad. It may make you cry, but I read it anyway. I really liked this book.
