Description "Jack is smart and funny and eleven years old. Jack is also being bullied and needs help. Unfortunately, Jack's mother is too wrapped up in herself to see this and Jack's teacher, Mr. Angelou, is too busy to pay attention to the warning signs. But little does Jack know that help is close at hand. This excellent one man show explores the taunting and teasing that bullies are so adept at inflicting on their victims and shows young people that they can win against bullying. Jack takes his audience on a touching and sometimes comical journey as he moves from victim to victor."
