Showing titles in Bullying

It's 1950 and Mickey Tussler - the now-famous pitching prodigy with autism and a golden arm - is back for another baseball season in this third installment of Frank Nappi's critically acclaimed Legend of Mickey Tussler series. Talk of Mickey's legendary exploits on the field has grown since his improbable debut two years prior, as have the fortunes of Murph and the rest of the lovable ragtag Brew Crew. Now Mickey, Murph, and Lester find themselves heading to Bean Town to play for the Boston Braves.

In the late 1940s, the minor league Milwaukee Brewers are foundering yet again and manager Arthur Murphy is desperate. When he sees 17-year-old Mickey Tussler throwing apples into a barrel, he knows he has found the next pitching phenom. But not everyone is so hopeful. Mickey’s autism - a disorder still not truly understood even today - has alienated the boy from the world, and he is berated by other players and fans. Mickey faces immense trials in the harsh and competitive world of baseball while coping with the challenges inherent to his disorder.

They broke me. Ryder, Maverick, Ezra, and Jaxson didn't think I would come back for my second year. The coldly cruel knights of Evergreen believed the Mark would be all it took to get rid of me.

They tore me apart until there was nothing left...and now, I'm going to return the favor.

No good deed goes unpunished. I learned that lesson the hard way when I agreed to help my friend Justin with a favor. My platonic friend Justin. A favor that helped him with his reputation but turned mine into the trending topic at my school.

I decide to take on the bullies and find a few surprising allies along the way; the Allendale Four.

Everything fell apart before we were able to pull ourselves together. When tragedy demands my silence, I have no choice but to give it - because losing a life also means saving so many more.

Even in ruins. In silence. I’ll bring the chaos.

What doesn't kill you will make you stronger. Or so the saying goes. That was before Trip Cohen, the number one bully at the academy, entered my life and dragged me to the depths of hell. The petty, conniving, brat sunk his claws into me, defiled and degraded me, but Trip isn't used to girls like me -girls from outside the hallowed, protected walls of Sparrowood. Strong girls with three street-wise, protective K-boys that have my back, body, and soul.
