I know, I remember picking up the book and thinking 'ooh, that's bad' but the blurb really doesn't prepare you for what's inside the book.

Yeh i know. I was quite surprised at how upset i was actully i didnt think it would affect me. I might start reading again soon.

Did you end up really really REALLY hating his parents? I remember getting really angry about it.

[ThaGazBoi]

I did indeed, and i feel the dad could have done more to help him. I thought im really happy to have such a great mum.

[Fangz]

His dad was useless, and almost as bad as the mum, in a way. The book made me really grateful for what I have.

[Ruth]

Yes me too. It really made me count my blessings.

[Fangz]

Another true story that made me count my blessings was 'Chinese Cinderella'. It wasn't any where near as extreme as David Pelzer's story, but it's about a chinese girl whose family ostracized her because her mother died giving birth to her. They told her this meant she was 'bad luck', and she was treated like dirt by her siblings, her father and especially her step-mother.

[Ruth]

I haven't heard of that, but I'll keep an eye open for it. There's a book called Once In A House On Fire by Andrea Ashworth, which again, isn't as extreme as Dave Pelzer's book, but it's very sad.

[Fangz]

Ooh, well I'll keep my eye out for that one, then.

[Corkie]

well im just too start a book called candy (for teenagers)

[Siouxsie]

my sis always reads the last chapter of a book before ahe starts to read it how sad is that ?
