Sep 17, 2024In this autobiographically inspired story, Weaver’s honest and sometimes heartbreaking journey with his mental health is inspiring and brutally honest in a way that will connect with victims of bullying but is also the story that bullies need to read to understand how damaging their actions can be. Some of it is a simple bystander effect or share on social media, all the way to the most hurtful of what Weaver went through, and this story scratches the surface of what some of our students experience today with online bullying. The trauma that Weaver experienced is explained delicately and compassionately so as not to pass along the trauma to the reader, but to invite empathy and understanding. This title deserves a place in every Anti-Bullying campaign, every Cyberbullying Awareness week, and a home amongst library shelves where patrons need a weird friend who will understand what they're going through.
