A free verse about fat shaming, bullying, and the effects it can have on a child. It was an insightful read and emotional as well. Ellie is a strong eleven year old. I do like that therapy was involved in this book, it shows that therapy is okay. Ellie did fight therapy at first, which some people tend to do, but she gets use to it and even comes to enjoy it.
The writing was spot on for it being in the perspective of an eleven year old. Because it was free verse, the 244 pages flew by fast! Once I started, I couldn't put it down.
I think I will have my kids read it, just to give them a perspective on how bully can effect someone. Whether it's psychical abuse or mental abuse.
Ellie had strong character growth, even though she's a fictional character, I'm so proud of her. She came a long way from beginning of the book to the end of the book. I would recommend this read.
