I can’t really say much about this anthology without explaining to you each story, which I will not do. This review will be extremely short, because I can’t tell you how amazing this or that character is, or how the plot is completely out of this world. All I can say is that you should read it. You should read it, then read it to your friends, your children, your cousin, you brother, your sister and anyone else. Bullying is a real problem, and I think this can make people realize this importance of this problem.
I can say that there weren’t stories I didn’t love. Some I enjoyed more, that’s for sure. Still, as a whole, it is damn every penny.
I bought this a few weeks ago, and I'm really looking forward to starting it. I also bought a copy for my daughters 6th grade reading class. Bullying is definitely a huge issue!
