The teacher says "You can't always win. You can't always break even. You can't stop playing the game." JoJo always wins the race to the tree. The winner always starts the tetherball game. But, today, someone runs faster than JoJo. The new winner tries to start the tetherball game, but nobody joins. JoJo is a bully and the other kids are afraid of what she'll do. What will happen now?

Showdown at Recess | Lois Wickstrom

so-so

Showdown at Recess teaches kids that bullying is never okay. After winning the race to start the game, the main character stands up to Jojo while the others just watch. Though I‘ve always enjoyed Lois Wickstrom‘s books, this one felt a bit different, “guimpus” puzzled me and part of the story seemed missing. Still it‘s a great read about fairness, courage and handling conflict kindly.
