"The unforgettable account of one of the most severe child abuse cases in California history. It is the story of Dave Pelzer, who was brutally beaten and starved by his emotionally unstable, alcoholic mother; a mother who played tortuous, unpredictable games--games that left him nearly dead. He had to learn how to play his mother's games in order to survive because she no longer considered him a son, but a slave; and no longer a boy, but an "it."

For OBCZ. Not for the faint of heart!

This book is a butt kicker and I remember someone in BC requesting this book. I hope to find them and send it off to them.

A book that made me want to go home and hug my son. In the mail tomorrow to unknowncritic.

Thank you! I got it yesterday. I'm a little afraid of it since chubsie called it a butt-kicker, but at the same time, really want to read it.
