He only knew one way. He mistreated them at times worse than their own mother did. Suzy live her life in constant abuse, not only from her own family but from her classmates at school. Until she finally learned with age to heal mind and body from the years of torment, mental and physical abuse that she suffered through. So “What Happened To Suzy” She excelled, She became strong, She is a beautiful person inside and out.
.
As I read this book I wondered to myself, how did she live through it, where is the child protective services when at schools they see a child bruised and battered and half starved to death. How she managed to suffer day after day without running away to get away from her home. There is no child whether they be white, black, any nationality or of a mixed race that deserves to live under that kind of abuse. I believe everybody needs to read this book. Teens just as well as adults and maybe just maybe some of the abuse that goes on today can be stopped before its to late for the next one named Suzy.
