A review by lauraramsborg
Bystander by James Preller

3.0

One of my students this past year ( a former reluctant reader) really liked this book. I read it based on his recommendation and also because its topic is bullying. The main character was likable and this story is very appropriate for a middle school audience. The end was a little too perfect--not all bullying stories have such a neat, happy ending...as we know from the recent news headlines.
