Ruth can do wheelies, climb higher than anyone, and stay completely off the radar. It's a survival skill when Dave's gang runs the school like their personal kingdom—stealing lunch money, destroying mix tapes, and making life miserable for anyone who doesn't fit in.
But when Ruth notices that Toby, Ravi, and Jake—three very different kids with one thing in common—seem suddenly, mysteriously happier, she wants to know why.
What she discovers is a secret. And an invitation.
FAB (Friends Against Bullying) Club is a funny, fast-paced adventure about a gang of misfits who decide that the best way to beat the bullies isn't to fight back—it's to build something better. With a cast of brilliantly drawn characters, a treehouse, a fire, a stolen laptop, and quite a lot of extremely unusual sandwiches, this is a book for every kid who has ever felt invisible at school.
Full of action, fun and adventure, Friends Against Bullying Club is a feel-good, fast-paced chapter book perfect for kids ages 8-12.
The adventure continues in FAB Club 2: Friends Against Cyberbullying—because the bullies have gone online. And in FAB Club 3: The Big Match, the FAB Club faces a new challenge: what do you do when the bully is your coach?
