Exploring the themes of friendship and bullying, this heartwarming picture book features a young girl with a friend named Dorothy. Dorothy is not like the other children at school: she is very big, always drops crumbs when she eats, and birds often land on her head without her realizing it. The narrator's other friends don't accept Dorothy and exclude her from their adventures, encouraging the narrator to do the same. But the narrator doesn't give into their bullying; she loves that Dorothy is different, and that's what makes Dorothy her best friend. Explorando los temas de la amistad y la intimidacion, este enternecedor libro ilustrado presenta una nina con una amiga llamada Dorothy. Dorothy no es como los otros ninos en el colegio: es muy grande, siempre deja caer migajas cuando come y pajaros suelen aterrizar sobre su cabeza sin que ella se de cuenta. Los otros amigos de la narradora no aceptan a Dorothy y la excluyen de sus aventuras, alentando a la narradora a hacer lo mismo. Pero la narradora no se rinde frente a sus intimidaciones; a ella le encanta que Dorothy es diferente, y es por eso que Dorothy es su mejor amiga. Lexile Level 570L
