Say Hello by Jack Foreman
A strikingly illustrated picture book with a strong anti-bullying message, from a father-and-son team. Based on the author's childhood experience, Say Hello tells the poignant story of a boy who is left out and all alone, while other children play happily together. Michael Foreman's beautifully spare illustrations perfectly complement the story's underlying message: "When someone's feeling left out, low, it doesn't take much to say … 'Hello!'"
A useful addition to any school's PSHE collection* www.writeaway.org *
