Nielsen BookScan Best Seller - 'A Brother's Journey' by Richard B Pelzer - Author Preview on www.meettheauthor.com

LONDON, February 16/PRNewswire/ -- Meettheauthor.com, the website that lets authors describe their books to
you before you buy, has a video clip of Richard B Pelzer explaining why he
decided to write the story of his abusive childhood 'A Brother's Journey'.
The book has leapt up the book-charts and according to Nielsen BookScan now
tops the UK book charts.



Visitors to www.meettheauthor.com can see Richard describe why he wrote
the book as a way of seeking closure and dealing with the real sense of
tears, fears and emotions that abused children live with. In the heartfelt
video clip Richard says that he hopes his book will mean that no young adult
living through child abuse should be afraid to speak.



David Freeman, founder of meettheauthor.com said, "Richard's heartfelt
explanation of why he wrote the book is extremely touching. His video clip
conveys the very real mixed emotions he has towards his childhood, and
topping the UK's non-fiction book-chart clearly demonstrates the immense
