The Book Bully. You've met him. That all-looming, impossible book to wrap your head around.
For whatever reason, the content, characters, voice, or story just aren't getting through. Diligent reader that you are, you push forward anyway, but not without incurring a few book-borne bruises along the way.
Will you ever escape its pages? Will you ever reach the back cover, or will you be sucked into the vortex of its gutter forever?
Of course, I'm talking about any picture books you may have picked up lately, nothing like Finnegans Wake, or anything.
Who are your book bullies?
