responsibility, learning and ethics...
bullying, forgiveness and friendship
Peter Stewart may not be the biggest kid in the class, but he does have a special gift. Peter is bright and loves to read. But when Peter is bullied and upstaged by the tallest kid in the class, Peter looses confidence in his ability to answer the teacher's questions. Because Peter fell behind in completing his homework, he isn't able to answer the questions as quickly as he used to. His worst enemy delights in seeing Peter
squirm and embarrasses him in front of the whole class again and again. But when Peter's enemy goes on the attack against a newcomer, Peter is determined to fight back and help the newcomer. But how can he help if the newcomer does not speak English?
The book introduces children to a foreign
language and geography. It is both educational
and entertaining .
