Reach for this book when your child feels small, unheard, or is struggling with the frustration of being misunderstood by peers. Wodney Wat is a shy rodent with a speech impediment that makes his Rs sound like Ws, a trait the school bully, Camilla Capybara, loves to exploit. When Wodney receives a voice-activated robot for his birthday, his unique way of speaking leads to a series of high-stakes, accidental commands that turn the tables on his tormentor. It is a hilarious and empowering story for children ages 4 to 8 that celebrates neurodiversity and the idea that our perceived weaknesses can actually be our greatest strengths. Parents will appreciate how it models standing up to bullies using wit and self-acceptance rather than aggression.
