This is a lovely book that deals with a situation that happens in every classroom. Willow's character is very believable in her mixed emotions over what her friend Kristabelle is doing. But she shows courage in the end. Thoroughly recommend this title.

The story is resolved too easily but I like the protagonist's display empathy toward both the victims of the bully and the bully when she is shunned by her classmates.
