Awards/获奖情况：“Heaphy does an excellent job portraying emotions through facial expressions and posture . . . The backmatter is especially valuable, breaking down the actions that Thomas, his friends, and Kyle took to help end the bullying, giving ideas about combating bullying and thinking differently about oneself, and providing parents with constructive discussion questions.”—Kirkus Reviews

“Nobody! acknowledges the isolating and painful effects of bullying, while letting children know that they are not alone. This book offers a holistic view of bullying prevention that recognizes the needs of all of the children involved, including the target, bystanders, and the child who is bullying. Using simple, yet powerful language, Nobody! helps children embrace what makes them special and unique, and provides positive steps to help stop bullying in their schools. It’s a great tool to help start conversations about kindness, empathy, and acceptance.”—Julie Hertzog, director of PACER’s National Bullying Prevention Center
