The Power of Words: My Name Is Sally Book One

By Linnet Brown

Ten-year-old Sally accepted the name-calling because she always got in trouble for fist fighting. During that school year, she became a sad little girl who was not doing well in her education. So the following school year when Sally moved to another class, the teacher gave her words to fight with instead of fists. The words given to Sally allowed her to rise higher than was expected.
Sally tells her story to help other children who might be undergoing bullying. And also, it is a strong message to children who are bullying others.

Bullying destroys lives.

The spoken word is like fire. If used carelessly,

it will destroy lives.

But when used wisely, it will give wings to those who

need them to fly.
