YA
Adapted from spoken-word poet Koyczan's performance and animated video about bullying and empowerment, the message sometimes gets lost in the illustrations (by thirty different artists), with phrasing and stanzas broken across pages in a way that makes them difficult to scan and less effective than the original performance. Still, this is a powerful poem on an important topic. Resources appended.
