About this listen

The Pelzer family's secret life of fear and abuse was first revealed in Dave Pelzer's inspiring New York Times best seller, A Child Called "It", followed by The Lost Child and A Man Called Dave. Here, for the first time, Richard Pelzer tells the courageous and moving story of his abusive childhood. From tormenting his younger brother David to becoming himself the focus of his mother's wrath to his ultimate liberation, here is a horrifying glimpse at what existed behind closed doors in the Pelzer home. Equally important, Richard Pelzer's touching account is a testament to the strength of the human heart and its capacity to triumph over almost unimaginable trauma.©2005 Richard Pelzer (P)2005 Time Warner AudioBooks Abuse Dysfunctional Families Personal Development Heartfelt

Critic reviews

"Gripping....By looking back at - and then releasing - the image of the skinny, red-haired boy who wanted nothing more than his mother's love, Pelzer discovers his true spirit, which he shares courageously and selflessly here in the hope of healing himself, as well as raising awareness of and preventing child abuse." (Publishers Weekly)

Good but made me sick

This book is full of lots of details. It made me sick tho to hear how much pleasure his brother got from abusing or watching his brother be abused. I just got finished with the child called it and that book made me sad for that child David. He’s not an it and his brothers and family to hurt him and treat so horrible is sick.
