Age: preschool

Dewdney has a fantastic way with rhyme that is pleasing but not overpowering--and she can present a fantastic storyline. This will definitely be my go-to book for preschoolers that might be experiencing a bossy classmate. The story includes being bossed around and being called names, an instruction of what to do ("Being bullied is no fun! Walk away and tell someone"), and a resolution. Sure, the ending may be resolved too nicely but it's nice to see a happy ending for this audience.
