this book was amazing! after i had read a child called it i just wanted to read this. i wanted to find out how the story continued. it is sad to see that someone should have to go through this because no matter how he has come through it the memories will always be with him. i am just glad that there is this superb book to show the world just how bad childrens lives can be.
