A Child Called It.

The book A Child Called It is my favorite book. It is about this kid who used to be with such a nice and caring family. Except for one day she started to get all mean and stuff. SO she started to torture him. It first started out with just the yelling and him having to live in an old army cot in the basement with no blanket. Then it went to having no food and him starving. Next it went to the beatings and then once she turned on the gas stove and made him put his arm on the burner. She drank a lot so whatever he did made her angry. One day she was so drunk that she had a carving knife and started to sway from side to side and threw the knife at him. David is the kids name. Since his mom was starving him he had started stealing food from the kids lunch boxes at school. So every day when he got home she made him gag himself to see if he had school any food from school. The worst thing she did was she put ammonia and clorox in a bucket and putting David in the bathroom with it. Since his mom already knew he was stealing food from school he started to run to the local grocery store and steal food. That is all i'm going to tell you about this story. I hope you get a chance to read it.
