Early in life, all children seek acceptance and love. The transition to school can be very rough, especially if you are perceived as different from your peers, making you a target for ridicule and bullying. The story What the Dream-Witch Told Me presents an age-appropriate way for five- to ten-year-olds to put ridicule and bullying into its proper perspective: The negative messages that you give yourself can trap you into feeling defeated and unwanted. Break free by focusing on the power and beauty within you and ignoring the bullies who want to take you down with them.
