A Child Called "It" (used)

"A child called 'it' is the unforgettable account of one of the most severe child abuse cases in California history. Dave Pelzer was brutally beaten and starved by his emotionally unstable, alcoholic mother, who played torturous games that left him nearly dead ... In the sequel, The lost boy, Dave is finally 'rescued' by the social-service system, then shuffled in and out of five foster homes. Tears and laughter, despair and hope, all create the journey of this little lost boy desperately looking for the love of a family, a place to call home"--Jacket. Ko'proq ko'rish
