‘They started pointing and hissing behind my back. From one day to the next.’
Victorina has started believing that her classmates are right: that she is different, and awkward.
‘How can I be popular, like all those other children?’, Victorina wonders. She racks her brains, but does not dare tell anybody. Except the cat, and the tree on her street, who both try to help her. Not until the summer holidays does Victorina find peace again. She relishes her freedom. She discovers who she is and that, it
seems, is exactly how it should be!
Victorina is a sensitive and heartfelt picture book that offers encouragement to children going through a tough time, and helps them understand the effects of
bullying.
