From the Big Feelings, Calm Choices series, this story follows Lennon, a student who begins to experience more than just mean words at school. What starts as teasing turns into pushing, grabbing, and getting hurt- leaving Lennon feeling scared and unsure of what to do.
As the behavior continues, Lennon learns something important: if someone is hurting you, you should tell a trusted adult. And just as important- if you see someone being hurt or even think something might not be right, you should tell too. Through Lennon's journey, this story helps children recognize when behavior has become unsafe, understand that physical harm is never okay, and learn that telling is how we keep ourselves and others safe. It also gently reminds readers that telling is not about getting someone in trouble- it is about getting help. Because everyone deserves to feel safe, supported, and protected.
