Title: Please Stop Laughing At Me
Description: This powerful, unforgettable memoir chronicles how one child was shunned-and sometimes physically-abused her classmates from elementary school through high school. 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.
