London is navigating depression and grief, while trying to keep up with her job as a middle school teacher.
Learn each character’s fears and face off against bullies, hurled insults, inner demons, grade monsters & more. Seek comfort in each character’s favorite item. Confront your biggest enemy – the worst bully, or your inner self!
