This book educates about the importance of empathy and being kind to others. The reason why children make fun of others in the first place is because they aren't educated about how it's wrong. They think it's funny and don't understand that it hurts others. It's no different than bullying. The world could be such a better place if people could just be kind to each other rather than tear each other apart. The writing and illustrations are perfect. It's an easy read for younger children. This is a story that can be read by all ages.
