Bellatrix: Meets The Saddest Little Man - Paperback

by Nikki de Mars (Author), Sarah Solomon (Illustrator)

Bellatrix is a fierce, brave, and creative girl whose life is turned upside down when she meets Little Man, her new stepbrother. Little Man is a spoiled brat. He's completely self-centered and will stop at nothing to get his way and maintain his cushy lifestyle and power. Unfortunately for Bellatrix, she has become the target of his abuse, and everyone seems oblivious to how horrible he is! We've all felt the sting of injustice in our lives, and our kids are no different. Sometimes people (or institutions) seem out to get us, and it feels like no one will listen. Learn from Bellatrix's experience in this hilarious story that will have your kids cracking up and help them deal with the anger and helplessness they feel when confronted with unfairness.

The goals of The Bellatrix Series are to challenge children to think critically about adversity and gender norms and to encourage kids to fully express themselves by expanding their vocabularies.
