"I wanted to read A Child Called It, because it was recommended to me, actually, by another teacher that worked at the school I was working at, at the time. And the children I've worked with have often been abused or neglected and that's kind of part of what the story's about. So he said it was really moving and touching, so I thought I'd read it. It's a story of a young man named David Pelzer and he writes it himself. And it's about his youth growing up in an abused home. It was very honest and moving and I think it did a really good job of, like, going back to childhood and expressing kind of the feelings and frustrations and fears from a child's perspective; and then also from the perspective he learned as an adult. I think it's a great story for everybody to read. I think it makes you very conscious of the things that may be happening right near you, of things that children in our communities go through, and I think it's just a really moving personal narrative. I would give it four stars. It's better than your average book, but I don't think it's a great masterpiece of literature. It's a good read. It's really easy. It's fast. I did it in a night. I think it's really moving and it's a book I would buy - and I'm a big check books out of the library, because I don't always need to own them - but it's a book that I would purchase."
