      Title: Deaf, Dumb, Blind and StupidAuthor: Tremayne MoorePublished: Maynetre Manuscripts, LLC.Reviewed By: Arlena DeanRating: 5Review:"Deaf, Dumb, Blind & Stupid" by Tremayne Moore was a interesting read of a Michael Anderson's. Truly this person experienced so much 'heartache' it was almost to much for me to read but I continued on and made it though till the end. We find this young man is only wanting love and acceptance but unable to find it for himself only abuse. What all did we get from Michael's journal? I liked how this author was able to give the reader such a 'powerful heart breaking and courageous story' that was full of emotions. It was interesting to see how well this story deals with religion and racism in depth referrals to the scriptures and the Bible. O felt "Deaf, Dumb, Blind and Stupid" will really open your eyes and bring healing to all of those who read it. It really bothers me to think that a mother would let this happen to her son and then on to the father, then to the vile uncle and ridicule from his peers only to leave me to say 'OMG! To get it all you must pick up the novel to see how well this author delivers this well written story. It will be one that you will not forget any time soon.Thanks to the author for writing such a well research and well written book. For "Deaf Dumb, Blind and Stupid" definitely offers awareness of child abuse. Would I recommend this novel? Yes, definitely for all victims as well as counselors. Well done to the author!

      The opening of the book starts at the funeral of Michael Anderson at Severna Community Church, where Bro. Elliot Freeman shares the life account of the young man who died so soon.Michael was mistreated by his parents, especially his mother, and she trusted him after school with his Uncle Woody who had physically and sexually abused hm. He thought of sharing stories of abuse to bless someone else who has chosen to remain silent but needs to be broken by talking about it with professionals, or those who could have helped. The book shares also valuable lessons: forgiveness, name-calling, fault-finding as if it was the abused fault, relative versus listening to the child who was abused, counseling both professionally and spiritually, and suicidal thoughts."...understand the mystery of God--faith in Him for He's ordered our steps but still have to forgive them although you've been victimized by the abuser...and some feel God allowed it to happen without judgment (page 21, paraphrased).
