Publisher's Synopsis
"Tessie Pirtle: The Plus Size Turtle" has been written to emphasize that a deeper beauty is almost always found within. Tessie had to put up with bullies making fun of her weight, and we have decided bullying will be defeated, and it will take ccharacters like Tessie and Tommie T. and you and me and many others to lead and show everyone we are all of us valuable--we all have something to offer this world, and there is absolutely no bully or group of bullies that will ever slow us down. So step aside great big world out there--goodness is coming through.
