This book is relevant and stresses on an important problem in the school system that is very common. As a teacher, this book will be of great benefit to me and my learners. Thanks for an interesting review.

This sounds like a great children's book addressing such an important issue like bullying. I'm sure many parents, teachers, and children will appreciate it.

as a child i didn’t really experience bullying in any form but i know people who did. it’s important that we educate ourselves more on how to help because anyone can get bullied anywhere whether in school or at work

Bullying was been there for a very long time. Up until now most of the victims of this behavior experienced trauma. This book has its unique way to help kids who are experienced or experiencing bullying.

"Jenny's Heroes" by Barry Litherland sounds like a very interesting read. I'm yet to interact with a children's book that excites as this. I love the humor and adventurous part of the book. Congrats on BOTD!

I love the concept of the mysterious girl who helps Henry diminish bullying at school. Would love to read how it all plays out. Thanks for the review.

The book started with so much suspense, that keeps you reading from the first line of the page till the end. It was very clever the way Mr Barry played with the character “Jenny” my mind was engaged wandering who she was, whether she was a real person or an infigment in Henry’s mind, at chapter four it was clear to me what He was trying to do with that character which I find very interesting, I won’t tell you, download the book to find out yourself.

The book tackled issues like bullying and the absence of proper parenting, which showed in Shane’s behavior, a properly cultured child wouldn’t turn out a bully.

The need to give listening hears to our Lads cannot be over stressed, I wandered althrough the book why they changed Henry’s school that he liked to this new one that had lots of negatives, he could not even discuss his struggles with his parents, which points out the distance in their relationship.

This book is a must read, Iots of lessons, though had over 35 chapters but they felt so concised so interestingly.

I’m going back to read the book again. This is my honest review on the Book of the Day “Jenny’s Heroes ". The story illustrates the Title very well.

More kids experience bullying than we know. I like that the author touches on this topic through a fictional story that younger readers can relate to and use to seek solutions in their relationships. This looks interesting and would be helpful to recommend to others. Great review!

Reading the story makes me realise how children suffer these days .Children go through a lot ,they get bullied at school and they don't say a word about .They start opening up about it when they see that things are getting out of hand.
