B - Bios - 003 A Man Named Dave



A Man Named Dave – Dave Pelzer

Story Synopsis
As a child, Dave Pelzer was horrifically abused by his mother, who considered him to be an ‘it’, not a child. But he survived and lived to tell his courageous story. Haunted by memories of his years bruised and cowering in his mother’s basement, his life remained a struggle – but he was determined to make something to himself.

Dave’s dramatic reunion with his dying father and a shocking confrontation with his mother led to his ultimate calling: mentor to others struggling with personal hardships. From a difficult marriage to the birth of his son and an enduring friendship, Dave was finally able to break free from his past, to trust, to love and to live.

FROM THE BESTSELLING AUTHOR OF A CHILD CALLED ‘IT’ AND THE LOST BOY:
‘Immensely powerful… What has made Dave Pelzer’s story a bestseller is that it is also a story of redemption. It is a story where love kindness, patience and endurance triumph’ DAILY MAIL
