This book is perfect for any age. This book help children be civil and identify bullying in the school. The book also gives advice and suggestions on what to do when you are being bullied.
I think this is a great book to teach children how to handle being picked on. It also teaches being a bully is not very nice.
Genre:This is a realistic fiction book because the character, setting, and events seem real. This story is about kids who get bullied and explains why bullies feel the need to bean to others. This gives many examples of situations where children get bullied and explains what to do when you are bullied and how to not let the bullies get you down. By the end of the book, everyone is acting nicely towards one another.

Characterization: All of the kids who are getting bullied are round characters because we can see how mistreated they felt and how lonely or unimportant they felt when someone was picking on them. They are also dynamic because they change by the end of the book and learn how to get help and to treat others kindly instead of show more fighting back.

This book is a about a girl who gets picked on by friends.

My personal experience when I was younger I was diagnosed with Cerebral Palsy and my peers made fun of me because of the way I walked.

Classroom extension ideas are have students tell stories about how they were made fun and tell them how they felt when being picked on.
