New School Year is Underway

All the DCF books are now at our school library for the next 2 months. Read as many as you can! Please tell me what you think.

Bystander by James Preller
I thought this was a very thought provoking book. It got me thinking about things.
How do you define bullying? Who were the bullies in this book? Did you sense the darkness and evil? Even if you are NOT a bully is it right to stand by knowing bad things are going on around you? The author liked this quote of Martin Luther King, Jr. and I do too: "In the end, we'll remember not the words of our enemies, but the silence of our friends."
What do you think that means?
