While other kids were daydreaming about dances, first
kisses, and college, Jodee Blanco was just trying to figure
out how to get from homeroom to study hall without being
taunted or spit upon as she walked through the halls.
This powerful, unforgettable memoir chronicles how one
child was shunned—and sometimes physically abused—by her
classmates from elementary school through high school. It is
an unflinching look at what it means to be the outcast, how
even the most loving parents can get it all wrong, why
schools are often unable to prevent disaster, and how
bullying has been misunderstood and mishandled by the mental
health community. You will be shocked, moved, and
ultimately inspired by this harrowing tale of survival
against insurmountable odds. This vivid story will open your
eyes to the harsh realities and long-term consequences of
bullying—and how all of us can make a difference in the
lives of teens today.
