One day, a \"Weirdo\" actually shows up in response to their name-calling. The creature wants to play  Thus begins a tale of unlikely friendship: Weirdo and Willy find the companionship they've been missing in the most unlikely of people... er, creatures.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis story is about accepting differences and not prejudging people. It's about co-operation and selflessness. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThrough playful imagination, \"Weirdo and Willy\" takes on the psychologically traumatic and scarring experiences of name-calling, bullying, victimhood, and being a social outcast. \"Weirdo and Willy\" turns the bully-victim relationship on its head by transforming the usual belittling names that kids call each other into delightful awe-inspiring creatures that befriend the children. By the end of the story, what began as a negative name used to exclude and ridicule a child becomes a heroic, likeable name- a name a child would wear with pride. \"Weirdo and Willy\" also explores how to make friends and pull oneself out of social isolation or an outcast state.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eTaunters beware  You never know what might actually show up \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Marcy Pusey\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1948283107\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781948283106\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Miramare Ponte Press\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 05\/21\/2019\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 44\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.27lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 8.50h x 8.50w x 0.12d","brand":"Marcy Pusey","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":46602776641791,"sku":"9781948283106","price":14.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_9c96c1b4-93c5-4f34-bc0b-ad6f4b8c2b18.jpg?v=1739695250","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/weirdo-and-willy-marcy-pusey-9781948283106","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
