The authors is a six year old with a health problem and a bully problem. A small child tackles a problem head on and serves as a role model for all children facing bullying, problems, or experiencing being different in any way.
In charming and sometimes touching first person the author shares the secret world of a child suffering from a medical condition and from peer taunting. Rich in faith, the lessons shared by her parents serve to strengthen not only the child but also the parents. A blunt and open must read for children pre-school to fifth who face any medical conditions, being differently challenged, or other issues. It is also a good introduction for all children and parents about the issues and impact of bullying.
Not Fat Because I Wanna Be by LaNiyah Bailey is a must have for schools, teachers, families, and anyone who works with children. Available on Amazon or from the books webpage. See her website.
