Mary's excellent recall of her early childhood and riveting writing style, keeps you involved with this devastating tale of child neglect. Mary relates how she was brought up in this dysfunctional family and forced to go begging for food to provide for her family. You wonder at the lack of involvement by authorities and Mary's determination not to relinquish any control over her little family unit at such a young age. This book is not for the faint of heart.
