Lucy has big hair, eats fun foods and is teased by a boy named Ralph at school because she is different. She tries to be brave but she wishes the teasing would stop. What should I do? she asks herself over and over.
Lucy’s Papa Gino reminds her to do the right thing and treat people with kindness. So when Ralph gets stuck on the playground and needs help, will Lucy use this chance to teach Ralph a lesson? Or will she have the courage to be true to herself and make the right choice with an act of kindness?
Readers of all ages can empathize with Lucy’s brave journey as she sets out to rise above Ralph’s mean words, stay true to herself and build her self-esteem every step of the way.
This book comes with a free Reader’s Companion, complete with discussion questions, lesson plans and activities for children to go beyond the book. Download your copy direct from the publisher website.
The best book for teaching kindness and confronting bullying.
Spaghetti in a Hotdog Bun is perhaps the most beloved book by award-winning author Maria Dismondy. It carries the key message of love, courage and positivity supported by the many advocates of positive parenting solutions. It will sit comfortably on your shelf alongside other books that focus on emotions, confidence and bullying. Like the work of Adir Levy (What Would Danny Do?) and Jacquelyn Stagg (Kindness Starts with You).

Store description
Here at NW Book Rescue, we strive to keep used books and media out of landfills and in the hands of caring folks. Our team searches through pre-loved books and media to find you the gems: the old, the beautiful, the historic, the long lost favorites, the new centerpiece, the new-to you favorite read, watch, or listen. In the age of on-demand streaming, we believe in the preservation of physical media; there's nothing quite like the smell of an old book or the sound of a good record. We hope that you'll explore with us, find great treasures, and let us be a part of your used book and media experience. We also sell on Amazon and purchase/appraise books locally! We are located in Hubbard, Oregon and serve the Portland/Salem area. If you have any questions or are looking for something specific, shoot us a message: we are here to help!…
