Very True!!
Thank you so much for sharing this and your support. As a child, I was teased and bullied and know from experience, how it feels to be targeted for looking different but thanks to my bad experiences, I got inspired to write my anti-bullying books.

You are welcome. I understand, I was teased and bullied as a kid too. I feel for kids today, it is ten times worse with all the social media too. I absolutely loved Johnny Big Ears and think the anti-bullying books is a brilliant idea.
John Paul does so much on the subject of bullying. He really deserves attention for his books. We are so proud to have Johnny Bi-Ears as a B.R.A.G.Medallion Honoree!
