The Lost Boy (Dave Pelzer #2) The Lost Boy by Dave Pelzer. The genre is an autobiography. The Lost Boy is about a young boy that had no loving home. His only clothes are old rags that are torn. The only world he knows about is isolation and fear. Although people rescued him from his mother, he really has no place to call home. Now the child is considered an F-Child (Foster Child), Dave is moved in and out of five different homes. He suffers shame and experiences resentment from those who feel that all foster kids are trouble and unworthy of being loved just because they are not part of a real family. I think people should read this book because it can remind us that we has a place to call home.
so far this is a really great book. it is a series to " A Child Called It. " love this book so far it is sad though.
