Pickles and the P-flock Bullies

This story about bullying is from the author and illustrator duo of the best-selling Serendipity books. Pickles, a young Orca whale, is born with green patches instead of white. Her only friend is a harbor seal named Stitches. When the P Flock, a nasty group of seagulls, starts to pick on Stitches, Pickles discovers how deep and hurtful bullying can be. Bullying is a high-profile national topic, and this beautifully illustrated and engaging book will help parents, grandparents, educators, and other adults engage young readers in this discussion.
