Mom has no one like David around to beat on anymore. I am more afraid of her than ever...I get in more trouble for anything I do or say. Now I find that I'm always in trouble and I don't know why. Now that David is gone, I'm afraid that she will try to kill me, like she tried to kill him. I'm afraid that she will treat me like an animal like she did him. I'm afraid that now I'm her IT. The Pelzer family's secret life of fear and abuse was first revealed in Dave Pelzer's inspiring New York Times bestseller, 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 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.

Critique About Books A Brother's Journey

Not quite sure why I read this. It was quite disjointed and didn't really seem to have a point, other than describing the horrific abuse the author endured.

This book is such a waste of time. I read it to get the brother's perspective of the situation and story in A Child Called "It", written by Dave Pelzer, the brother of the author. Richard doesn't even talk about the abuse of David, he is very busy being angry at him, because he is now in the that position and he needs to face his mother. He was the tattle-taler before, and now he is angry because the victim has disappeared.Richard seemed to repeat himself over and over. And his story is not that

I really did like this book. I don't read at all but this book opened up my eyes. I just have to find the right subject and Ill click to it. I liked this book because Richard told us what he went through and he was so strong to write about it and publish it out to the world to read. Letting others know what youve been through in the past is very hard and also very emotional. He did very well on explaining hes feeling. The way he clarified his feelings it made me feel like I was there going

After reading A Child Called It, I had lots of questions that went unanswered. While Pelzer's story isn't as horrific as his brothers, he provides insight into his mother's mind better than David did. It was like a continuation of where David left off, showing how the "little Nazi" became his mother's next victim.

After reading A Boy called IT, A Man Named Dave, and The Lost Boy I had a lot of questions that were left unanswered. For example why did Dave's mother only abuse Dave? I found this book by Richard Pelzer and it was like a continuation of where Dave left off. Unfortunately, once Dave was removed from the home his mother turned the abuse on to another child - Richard. This book explains from Richard's point of view what he went through as a child and what his mother did to him.I read the book in

Richard, David's younger brother used be be on his mothers side when she used to beat David and he used to try to get David in trouble on purpose. Now since David was rescued by the county The abusive mother began to target him and abuse him for no reason. Over the years he finally realizes that he is physically able to stand up to her but he doesn't have the courage.

This is the book that David Pelzer's brother, Richard, wrote about his ordeal after David left home. When David was there, Richard functioned as Mother's Nazi." He tattled about every little thing Richard did and often lied to get him in trouble. Several years younger, his mother groomed him from the time he could talk.After David left, Richard became the outcast and as he became more and more abused, he felt terrible about the part he played in his brother's life. Eventually, he became "The
