This story is about a little boy  4-year-old and called ‘It’. 'Its' mum was nice until he turned 4, once ‘It’ was 4 years old his mother started drinking. The little boy ‘it’ was then her slave, she also abused him, but ‘it’ has 2 other brothers but she doesn’t treat them badly, she only treats ‘It’ badly. She never feeds him unless there were  leftovers from the dogs. But when ‘It’s’ father was home his mother acted nice and told his father that he was a bad boy and he stole food. ‘It’s’ bed was an army coat jacket in the freezing cold basement on the ground. ‘It’s’ mum never got him new clothes even though he only has one pair and that pair is torn and smells bad.

The little boy ‘It’s’ only dream is to have a loving family a to be called their son.

I rate it 5/5 because
I like that the boy was tough and he didn't give up no matter what his mum did. I also like how the book was set out so you knew what you were reading and it wasn't going from one place to another.
There was nothing I didn't like
