A Child Called It

Has anyone read this? It's the authors account of the abuse he took as a child. The book left me angry and wanting to harm his abuser. Very disturbing non-fiction.

Re: A Child Called It

I read this book awhile ago. I felt the same way. There is also some other books he wrote but I didnt read them. My wife did and she liked them just as much I will have to find out what the other book titles were.

Re: A Child Called It

If you felt angry at this one try "death by child abuse and no one heard" My daughter was the same age as the girl in the book and I was like WTF could make you do something that innocent. I dare you to read this book.

Re: A Child Called It

Have you guys/gals read any of the other books in this series? The wife and I have read all but the last one (I think there's about 4 books total). They chronicle his life up until being an adult. Very disturbing, but makes you realize how petty most problems are when put into perspective!
