So if you want to be "Popular" and gain your classmates' friendship, all you should do is "spying" on your teacher to give them the chance to misbehave?

You cast away "bossy" friends and "kids who don't treat you as a normal person" from your life, only to let the boy that you have a crush on "use" you as mean to mischief, and here you have children story's happy ending.
Really???????

I was really happy to have this book. I wanted to find a good graphic book about people who have different abilities, or about people who are having struggles in life that we don't know a lot about. Till the first third of the book, I was giving a blind eye to the girl's attitude that I don't appreciate being "approved" in a children's book, hoping to find that the girl learned something different at the end that would make her "really" accepting her difference. I was considering purchasing this book for our library. But letting people take advantage of you is not the kind of happy ending for me.
