Horrible book. Shallow. Not edifying.
Popular girl & her cowardly,(because they know it's wrong and do nothing about it) pack of friends daily pick on a 'less than' other child. The victim takes their torment with great class. In the end the actions of the children who tease daily drive the girls family to move away. The antagonist girls feel bad...(kind of) and somehow it ends on a happy note...'We'll never do that again'. Totally discounting the lasting harm that was done. No true repentance or reconciliation. Reminded me of a well known children's Christian cartoon. 30 mins of teaching wrongs actions followed by 1 min of 'Now children...don't do that! I am glad I read this before my child did.
