In the heartwarming tale of Tweedles and Ellie, discover the remarkable journey that unfolds when two young girls, facing their own physical challenges, encounter a bully. Rather than succumbing to fear or animosity, they choose a path of compassion and friendship. This inspiring book is a poignant reminder for anyone who has encountered challenges due to their differences. As Ellie and Grace navigate their physical challenges, they find themselves targeted by Billy's bullying behaviour. However, Grace possesses a wisdom that allows her to guide her friend in dealing with the hurtful actions of Billy. Together, they embark on a remarkable mission—to forge a bond with the unhappy boy. As the story unfolds, the power of empathy and understanding emerges. Ellie and Grace extend a hand of friendship to Billy, uncovering the hidden pain that fuels his hurtful actions. Through their unwavering kindness, they guide him on a transformative journey of self-reflection, helping him make amends with the rest of his class. "Loved it! Don't change a word!" C.I.
