I Am Jack By Susanne Gervay
This is a very special story by Susanne Gervay about a boy named Jack. Jack has a problem. The school bully has started calling him Bum-head. Soon, the whole school is calling him names, spitting at him, even hurting him physically. Jack can't tell his mum because she has too many other things to worry about. He will have to work it out for himself. But there aren't any quick fixes or Band-Aids to fix Jack's problem - the solution comes only when the people around him work together to tackle the problem for Jack and for all other victims of bullying.
