Synopsis
Rachel and Blossom are best of friends, they do everything together, swim, chat, play gymnastics in the garden, but Blossom is popular and has lots of friends, Rachel is quiet and has Blossom. Blossom loves school, Rachel hates it! Rachel is quiet and struggles to make friends, and really wants to be just like Blossom, she makes several attempts to join in with the others at school, but never seems to fit in. To make matters worse, Rachel has to deal with the school bully! Rachel’s school has lots of good ideas of how to deal with bullies, using the buddy bench, being the playground buddy monitor, sticking to the school motto, but they just don’t seem to work for Rachel. Rachel begins another day at school and she is not looking forward to going, until something strange happens and Rachel starts looking in places she shouldn’t. Nothing seems to help stop Rachel’s bullies, until someone you least expect comes to the rescue! Suddenly, school doesn’t seem so bad after all!
