Illustrated by
Jackie Urbanovic.
For Lotty, as for most children, the start of a new school year is exciting, so when a bully targets her, she is devastated. Despite its didactic intent, the realistic story is kept lively by Lotty's creative solution (she forms a club whose members stick up for anyone being bullied) and by the illustrator's variety of expressive animal students.
