Product Information
From the Publisher
Angels and superheros.
The true story of Dave Pelzer continues as he is rescued by teachers, social workers and foster parents from one of the most severe cases of child abuse documented in the State of California.
The Lost Boy recounts Dave's life from the ages of 12 through 18 from his placement in foster care to his enlistment in the U.S. Air Force. It is a story of indomitable spirit, unyielding faith and courage.
It is also a story of the professionals who serve children with their selflessness, dedication and love.
