One by Kathryn Otoshi

An intriguing story - here is the author reading her book http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1TGaDSMAS1E  The author has a fun website as well -  http://www.kokidsbooks.com/  You can listen to the book as well - http://utbtkids.com/2009/08/16/one/
Kathryn Otoshi's One is a great resource for teaching about bullying, but there is more to this book. "If someone is mean and picks on me, I, for One, stand up and say No." It has great watercolor illustrations. Many books about bullying are too preachy and feel false, but One is certainly a clever one that stands out.
