Nobody Likes Me: What Am I Doing Wrong? ponders 10-year-old Richie. Although Richie is smart, witty, imaginative, and full of character, the fifth grader still doesn't have any friends. At the advice of his mom, he spends most of his free time studying and practicing, but always alone. Richie wants to put all his effort and hard work to good use. What he expected would be his big break, turns into disappointment, and he now feels totally ignored and disliked. The chance to show everybody how good he is at everything slips through his fingers, and he is left to wonder if all his work was worth it. Could it be that his pride is getting in the way, or is he just getting a raw deal? This is the first in a series of Nobody Likes Me books on a wide range of self-help topics. Can you think of reasons why Richie is having such a hard time? First-time author Justine Williams is the mother of thirteen. She lives in New Windsor, New York. "It took my husband to challenge me about my aspiration of becoming a bestselling author by suggesting that I stop talking about it and do it." The experience she has gained from parenting has given her insight into the hearts and minds of children. Now with nine grandchildren, she is even more inspired to write books to enhance the lives of children. Publisher's website: http://sbpra.com/JustineWilliams
