Search - The Privilege of Youth

This book is about Dave's teenage years (it's like a companion book to The Lost Boy) and about all the people who touched his life and made him what he is today! There are only vague mentions of "The Mother" and there are no graphic disturbing scenes of child abuse.

A lot of the stories and people he shares in this book have been mentioned in his other three novels, but here he goes into more detail. It was a nice break after reading the other three. He is an amazing person!!

He always makes the best out of everything!

Dave Pelzer was an abused child from almost the time he can remember. His story begins with "A Boy Called It". If you have read the rest of the series then reading "The Privilege of Youth" and then "A Man Named Dave" is a necessity. Dave Pelzer is an emotional and vivid author with a sad, but determine story to tell that takes you through his life.

This poor kid had a lot to deal with, more than anybody in their life should ever have to deal with. He is amazing, not just for getting through it but for growing into such a wonderful man. Part of a series. What he went through was horrific but the inspiration of who he is gets you through reading about it. Awesome book. Awesome series.
