Books with title Elephant and Me

Ants and Elephants is a story about a 12-year-old boy named Wil who is bullied by Big Mike. Wil admits to being afraid of Big Mike, who has threatened to stomp him. The guy is twice Wil's size and has buddies only too willing to help him beat Wil to a pulp. Chloey, Wil's girlfriend, will not allow him to be intimidated. This savvy young lady teaches Wil psychological techniques that will help him stand up to his enemy. Meanwhile Wil builds a tree house and stakes it out, skipping school until he's mastered the art of showing Big Mike who's boss. Chloey tells everyone Wil has tonsillitis, and brings his schoolwork to the tree house. Wil becomes a town hero when he rescues the old proprietor from a burning building. With his esteem at an all-time high, Wil returns to school. When Big Mike walks over to his table in the cafeteria, Wil doesn't blink. He tells Big Mike off without raising his voice, leaving the bully in a dazed stupor. I enjoyed the witty dialogue, including the friendship between Wil and Chloey. This story can be enjoyed by all ages, but it's especially geared to grammar and middle school-age children. The message Mr. Jordan conveys is constructive and needful. With the right mindset and technique, the blundering elephant is no match for the savvy ant.
