Please Stop Laughing at Me... by Jodee Blanco
In her poignant work, Jodee Blanco tells how school became a frightening and painful place, where threats, humiliation, and assault were as much a part of her daily experience as bubblegum and lip-gloss were for others. It is an unflinching look at what it means to be an outcast, how even the most loving parents can get it wrong, why schools fail, and how bullying is both misunderstood and mishandled.
We've all seen the frightening results of school bullyingPlease Stop Laughing at Me... can help us prevent other teens from being harmed. -Dave Peltzer, author of A Child Called It and A Man Named Dave
Jodee Blanco is a seasoned publishing exec who has worked with numerous bestselling authors and actors. She teaches publishing at New York University and the University of Chicago.
