Review Detail

Reader reviewed by Allyssa

This book is so sad. It's an even sadder thought to know that this is a true story, knowing that the events actually happened.
This extremely sad story is about this boy named David. David's mother, one day, just decided that she hated him. David become her scapegoat. She abused him not only mentally, but also physically. It was bad enough that she abused him, but her methods of abuse were cruel and inhumane.


I cried while reading this book. It's unsettling, but a powerful story about child abuse. I think that if you could handle some of the situations he's put in, read it. But really read with caution, because it's so unsettling.
