Very emotional yet inspiring.Would highly suggest to read "A child called it first" and then follow with "A man named Dave" Otherwise your left with a sort of inner tormoil.

Your Heart Will Wrench
Review written by: Bobby T From
If you possess even the most minimal of human compassion, your heart will simply wrench while reading this book. I literally had my hands on my head throughout the reading of this book. I cannot imagine how another human being can be so cruel to a child. This will open your eyes to something many of us will never experience, witness, or even imagine. That is what happened to this child: the unimaginable.

This reader strongly recommends this book to anybody who is human. It will certainly make you appreciate what you have.

Love reading his words
Review written by: mamaofaprincess From
I have been reading and rereading his written words since the 7th grade. Very descriptive and extremly heartfelt.

the lost boy
Review written by: Millie K. Wilson From
This is child abuse extreme. This will make you cry, rip out your heart and make you want to rip out the mother and father of this child's hearts. It will make you,hopefully, more aware of child abuse and make you want to do something to stop it and prevent this from happening to another child. It will make you hug your child closer to you and thank God you are not like these people.

Another excellent book.
Review written by: K. Eddings From
Although not quite as intense as the first book, A Child Called It, still an excellent book. Especially if you've read the first in the series.

More of the same!
Review written by: Michael Wasson From
After determining that the first book was really a work of FICTION, I started to read this book because it claimed that questions would be answered.

That turned out to be a sales gimmick!

There were no answers, no explanations, no closure... merely the further embellishments of the author through the foster care system.

If I want fiction, I at least want fiction that is honest enough to be in the fiction section of the bookstore!
