Please Stop Laughing at Me: One Woman's Inspirational Story
reviewed on + 32 more book reviews


This is a very insightful look into the sociological world of elementary through high school students. I identified with Jodee's inability to fit in with her classmates and remembered feeling the same hurt, embarrassment, and loneliness she experienced. This book should be required reading in high schools across the country. Perhaps if more young people could see how their comments and actions affect others, then possibly there would not be as much cruelty exhibited by students. This is probably one of the biggest reasons we have had so many school tragedies such as Columbine.
