I Am Jack

I Am Jack

by Susanne Gervay

Life is good for Jack. He’s a photographer and an inventor, he’s got good friends at school and in the neighborhood, his family loves him for who he is. But when George Hamel starts calling Jack names, and then when everyone at school starts calling him names, it gets dangerous. I Am Jack thoughtfully and purposely sheds light on the contagious and destructive nature of school bullying, but also on the power of humor, love, and community to overcome it.
