The lost boy Week 4

He was moved to another foster home with a woman named Ms. April and he loved her from the moment he met her. It's just really sad he will never really know where he belongs. The book then goes back to some of the horrible experiences he had with his mother. She would make him drink amonia and bleach. One time she stabbed him in the chest and almost killed him. She took him to the hospital and made up a big lie of how it happend.

After the hearing was over the childs mother brought a bunch of new toys and clothes from her car and gave them to him. she hugged him and told him to be a good boy. he then felt like he betrayed her. the case worker then explained to him that what his mother did to him was wrong and no child deserves to be put through such torture. he then returned to his foster family with all of his new things and went to sleep.

The lost boy week 1

i was reading the secret but i switched to the lost boy. It's been very interesting...it's about a little boy that is a slave to his mother. She tortures him and makes him do awful things.She makes him sleep on a hard army cot in the basement and he can't come out unless she calls for him. She beats him and she's even broken his bones. She has done this for years until his teachers at school done sometjhing about it. He was deprived of food and had to eat out of the garbage. He came to school with gashes marks and bruises. the law finally got involved when they were notified by the school and took him from his mother and placed him in foster care. he grew very attached to his social worker and she became the only one he trusted. There were like seven other kids in the foster home. He was treated like a normal child which he wasn't used to that. There is a court date against his mother that they are preparing for.
