Advantages: you really get involved in the story

Disadvantages: it makes you feel disgusted at parts

Tell me why mummy is a really emotional story which is not for the faint hearted.

This book is written by David Thomas and is published by Harper Element.

The book is a biography.

This is definately a story of a young boys struggle through a horrible time all of which is caused by his mother.
It shows a story of a horrific secret that his mother is keeping and her betrayel towards her son.
From a young age David Thomas was sexually abused by his mother. His mother was an alcoholic and tells David that they are playing games.
He doesnt like the games which his mother is asking him to play however he wants to keep her happy as she is usually sad.
David was also physically abused by his stepfather . He was always being tortured and tormented.
By the time David was in his mid teens he had already started into a life of crime. He received a conviction from the juvenile court but he carried on with his crimes as it was the only thing that made him feel free and exciting.

He left the family home as soon as he was able too and finally got himself a job in the fire service.

In 1999 he was reunited with the evil woman who tortured him for years, his monsterous mother.
He keeps in touch which i dont personally understand why but she is his mother no matter how evil.

A year or so later he finds his mother dead which in my opinion she deserved it but is very tragic for him as she has put him through enough.
she died for reasons connected with alcohol which she caused herself.

It is a great story as you see the journey of a strong courageous loving boy finding his inner courage to overcome his alcoholic mothers abuse.
it is a really sad emotional story

Summary: a boys struggle for survival at the wrath of his mother
