70 Different Perspectives


By Lolita C.
Author and New York Times bestseller Carrie Jones, A sad but true story, Dear Bully is about 70 stories put into one book. Each short story is explaining what had happened in their encounters of being bullied for the way they look, who they are, or just for the bullies pleasure.


Each of the stories tell how emotionally distressed someone become from hearing that they aren't good enough or just being who they are isn't enough. In every 70 stories in this book say how they got bullied but they are completely better today with life situations. Some of the people who have wrote these stories say that even though they got bullied, the bullies helped them out for example they couldn't be in the place where they are without them.
I really liked how much emotion was brought within each story and how the person bettered themselves  with the "help" of a bully. I believe it's truly amazing how someone can take the words of someone being so cruel and do something incredible with their life and say "I did it, those words didn't work on me." I did not really like the fact that these stories are sad, and hurtful. Being mean to someone can cause them to do stuff bad stuff to themselves.
This is a great book, if anyone is looking for a real life events, this is a book for you.
Readers can find this book in the nonfiction part at a public library and or a school library.
