A Child Called "It"
Hey I'm 15 and decided to do a presenation on that book. For those of you who have read it...any ideas? I would have to pick out certain selections and read and all that stuff. I just don't know which parts to choose. I'm looking for something that stands out and that would actually make people wonder and think. I'm not looking for sites or anything, I've read the book. Will rate - Thanks.

Want to answer more questions in the Work & School category?
Maybe give some free advice about: School?
you should use some expamles of abuse such as the bathroom scene. also talk about the poop scene at the beginning and other parts that will make them want to know wha happends to him

OMGSH. I just finished reading The Lost Boy ( sequal to a child called it )
I would definitly choose the parts where him and his family go to the Russian River. Then select a few parts where his mother abuses him ( i.e when she sticks his arm on the stove or leaves him in the bathroom with clorox and ammonia ) that will definitly get people interested. Then select one section from the back. ( not the ending, something that leads up to the ending so they will want to find out the rest )
Hope it all goes well
♥ & ♥

hey just like me i choice to do a report on that book(i am 14) and i think the most important part that would shock people is the chapter that he explain to everyone who he is abused by his mother...i think it is the second chapter where he tells the readers that.(its called the fight for food) if i am not mistaken.. hope this helps you out.

Hi,
The problem with this question is asking others to tell you what is important about the book and what stands out. Everybody who read it will have different feelings, thoughts and emotions on it. The teacher is looking to you to tell her/him what stands out to YOU AND YOU ALONE. They want to see your thought process, how the book affected you, made you think and what was the most important parts. It is a TEST OF YOUR CHARACTER AND ABILITIES TO RECALL INFORMATION and answer the question.
You would fail the assignment coming to me or us and asking what was important about the book? Everyone who reads this powerful book will have a different view. She wants to see your wrapped around what you thought was the most important points.
You read the book, you are intelligent so please trust yourself, go through it and write your assignment. You could get yourself an A if you log off the net, buckle down and write what you think uninfluenced. Trust me, as a writer and a professional one at that this is the best way to figure out what is inside you just write and write about that book and your thoughts and what was important and trim it down after reading it all.
This takes a ton of time each night but that is how to get an A versus a D. Go for it, let me know how it turned out.
