Query: The Lost Boy

The Lost Boy is an autobiography by Dave Pelzer. It is the second book of a trilogy following A Child Called It. It tells about his life from age nine to age eighteen. As a young boy Dave lived in an abusive family. His mother would get drunk and start beating him. At the age of nine Dave ran away and his mother eventually lost custody of him. He went from one foster home to the next. He tried everything he could to try to fit in with the kids at school. He even started stealing from convenient stores and shopping centers. He stole anything from candy to toys. When he was eighteen years old he joined the air force. The Lost Boy is excellent to read. All of Dave's books will definitely touch your heart. If you have time I would definitely read it.
