Bookroo's summary
Jimmy, a school bully, steals lunches to avoid the free lunch line. Unfazed by authority, his tough exterior cracks when a surprising act of kindness challenges his hardened heart. Will this moment of compassion change his path, or will he continue down a familiar road? Discover the transformative power of empathy in a story where one small gesture could open the door to a new beginning.
From the publisher
Every day Jimmy takes ‘Skinny Kid’s’ lunch at school. No way will he be caught dead standing in that FREE LUNCH line. Even when he’s called into the principal’s office, Jimmy just shrugs. “Yeah. Whatever.” Until a surprising act of kindness stops him in his tracks. For a split second a door cracks open into Jimmy’s heart. Who knows? Maybe he’ll just kick that door right open.
