She's big. She's smart. She's mean. She's the bully on the bus. She picks on me and I don't like it. But I don't know how to make her stop.

The bully on the bus taunts seven-year-old Leroy, then silences him with threats of worse to come. To distract him, his teacher introduces him to the adventures in The Big Bad Book of Fairytales. Hidden throughout are the clues that Leroy needs to overcome the bullying taunts once and for all.
