After her first day at a new school, a little girl, Vanessa,
is bullied on her way home. Another girl
from her class sees the bullying, and the next day she has an idea to help
Vanessa.
This simple, yet powerful wordless picture book sends a
powerful message about an easy step to take when you see someone being
bullied. Children at any age will be
able to understand the message. There
are some clear talking points at the end of the book. I did have to look hard to find the bully in
the final pages, but it is well worth taking the time to point out his
reaction.
