The Bully Chip

$18.99pb 261pages

Themes: Bullying/ Funny stories/ High school life/ Sequels
Callum in his up market wheelchair and his no nonsense
friend Sophie plus Jinx are being targeted by two particularly nasty bullies
who have arrived at school. However, they have picked on the wrong people and
in spite of tactics that might have totally floored less strong characters, Callum, Sophie and Jinx
end on a note of triumph. The story (like its predecessor, The Brain Sucker 2012 ISBN 978 1 9219 7763
3) is written in the sort of language that today’s younger readers relate to
and would make a satisfying read aloud for 9 to 11 year olds.
Years 5–8/ Ages 9-12
