Yes I have lol

The best one was by Dave Peltzer...A Child called It, Lost Boy. and a MAn called Dave....its a really poignant story...but not for the feinthearted.... David was abused by his mother....and NOOO mother, I think, could relate to why she did wot she did...but he rose above it all and after serving many years in the US forces..he is now a worldwide success with the books he has wrote....

The others on similar lines are: Handstands in the Dark by Janey Godley; Behind Closed Doors by Jenny Tomlin and the other was about The Magdalena Laundries...cant remember who it by (lol cos i lent the book out!) but it was also good. All were shocking at the way children been treat...but at the same time...brilliant!
