Bully

“Bully by Patricia Polacco is a middle-grade book about sixth-graders Lyla and Jamie, who bond as new kids at school but are then targeted by a popular clique that bullies them online and in person, forcing Lyla to choose between fitting in and standing up for her friend, addressing themes of friendship, social cliques, and cyberbullying. The story is known for its powerful message, striking illustrations, and its focus on the modern, intensified cruelty of bullying through social media.”
