A favourite is...<\/p>\n

Cool<\/em>\u2026 He thinks he\u2019s a sub hero dude. A dude.<\/em>
\nA geezer who\u2019s too cool for school uniform.<\/em>
\nChews on mint gum.\u00a0<\/em>Calls me Swot, Loser, Dumb.<\/em>
\nTells me to chill. Thinks he is it.<\/em>
\nWell, he\u2019s not.<\/em><\/p>\n

This is a great collection and will be much enjoyed by children around ages of 8 \u201311. It speaks about how you feel as an individual in a class of others. And how others feel the same, even though they don\u2019t say anything.<\/p>\n
