Hooway for Wodney Wat has won countless awards for its exceptional story. The story teaches children about empathy for differences amongst their peers. In this story, we have Rodney Rat who can not pronounce the letter ‘r’. He pronounces his name as Wodney Wat due to his inability to pronounce the ‘r’. His classmates tease him continuously because of his speech impediment making Rodney Rat feel miserable and friendless. His status amongst his classmates changes when he is able to outsmart the bully that terrorizes the class. The illustrations convey the range of emotions that Wodney and his classmates go through from the bullying that Wodney takes from them to the confrontations that the class endures with the bully.
I love these authors - they write a series about the same character and all of them are very captivating. They all intertwine so it would help to read them in order, but it is not necessary.
