The Lost Boy is Dave Pelzer's long-awaited sequel to A Child Called "It". In it, he answers questions & reveals new adventures through the compelling story of his life as an adolescent. Now considered an F-Child (Foster Child), Dave is moved in & out of five different homes. He suffers shame & experiences resentment from those who feel that all foster kids are trouble & unworthy of being loved just because they are not part of a "real" family.
