The Boy Called "it"

  This book is very traumatic to read and to think it was real life is just crucial. The boy called it a little boy's will to live a survive. A life threatening life with "the mother" a monster that has some issues and isn't going to stop until her son "it" disappears or ends up dead. The book portrays how Dave was physically, mentally, and verbally abused. The father of Dave sometimes intervened but he started to get tired of doing so. The mother eventually got her firefighter husband to stop trying. That became hell for Dave since that point on.


I personally liked this book because it gave me a feeling that whatever came Dave's way he would overcome it. Although Dave had a "nice" family at first it only grew worse which grasped my attention. Dave became very vulnerable. I recommend this book to an audience that is willing to give their time and listen. This book was very encouraging and I would read again if I could. If you want to read the book I have a link below with the chapters.
