Book Reviews of El Niņo Sin Nombre: La lucha de un niņo por sobrevivir (Spanish Edition)
Book Review: Amazing
Summary: 5 Stars
I read this book because a friend of mine had recommended it to me. You know that Dave survived his ordeal because he starts off with his rescue before he goes back into his childhood. As I was reading the book, there were times when I would cry almost uncontrollable, how could a mother do that to her child.After reading this book, I had the opportunity to meet Dave Pelzer and hear him speak. He is a wonderful person to be around and he almost always has a smile on his face.
Book Review: Left you wanting more
Summary: 4 Stars
This book is one that you won't put down. I enjoyed his honesty and the insight of a horrible child abuse case. The one main problem that i had was that the three books in the series should have been combined into one book. The reader shouldn't have to buy three seperate books when the story could have easily been put into one. If you are just wanting to buy one book, don't buy this because you will want to buy the next two and spend even more money. A Child Called "It" is very short and readable, I suggest you read it at a bookstore or at a library, it own't take you long at all.Book Review: A Child Called it
Summary: 5 Stars
The book a child called it would have to be one of the best books that I have read in a long time. The way that this whole book is put togather is remarkable.This child went through so much and thank the lord above he is still alive today for his own safety and to write about his experience as a child to let others know of the child abuse that is happining in this world today. This book really touched me, it made me have so much anger and hate towards his mother and father. How could his father sit there and let all this mental and physial abuse just happen to his own child, his own flesh and blood. It's so ridiculous. Just reading this book made me think about all the children out there who are just like David, getting abused, it made me want to get up and try to do something about it. It made me so full of anger and sadness for David. All togather I belive this book is extrodanary and I would recomend it to anyone.Book Review: Shocking!!
Summary: 4 Stars
If you are about to go into a courtroom or other political arena, for the purpose of defending a child, READ THIS BOOK right before you go in, and the outrage you will feel from it will help you have the right passion about it.
What a shocking story! I was quite shaken. I had to put it down, feeling sick. It is amazing how this man survived, and more amazing how he evolved positively. It made me look at my neighborhood in a different way. How many children around me are going through this same? It made me pray for all the children in my community.
I remember ignoring an incident in a store years ago. I witnessed a mother who was out of control: she pulled her young child out of the store, swung her around in the process, wacking the child's nose on the way, which instantly bled, and may have been broken. Now I am haunted by the abuse I may have been preventing if I had reported it...I don't know. You just never know. The people around David ignored the signs, or just couldn't fathom this kind of torture.
People, there IS evil in this world. Don't believe it? Read this book; you'll believe. Buy this book and give it to the people/judges/politicians you know who are soft on child abuse--maybe they will change.
One thing that lacked, was I really wanted to know what happened to the mother after David was rescued. (But now I know he wrote more books, which may fill in the aftermath details.) This is purely a testimonial, with a small aftermath, so don't get this to look for solutions.
Book Review: This book was GREAT!
Summary: 5 Stars
I'm not big on reading but I read this book for a report at school. This was the BEST book I have ever read by far! It was great and kept you reading. It was a tear jerker but at the same time I couldn't put it down. There is no doubt, you should read this book!
