Hooweay For Wodney Wat by Helen Lester

Fantasy, Picture Book
Summary- A rat named Rodney can't pronounce his R's and the other rats at his school make fun of him. He didn't talk to the other kids. He was upset because they hurt his feelings because they made fun of the way he spoke. A new rat came to school whose name was Camilla Capybara and she was very smart and perfect. The only thing was, was that she was a bully. Toward the end of the story the other rats began to like Rodney and dislike Camilla because she is so mean and thinks she is the best. Camilla couldn't understand anything Rodney said and the other children could. Now Rodney was the hero!
Theme-Just because your smaller doesn't mean you can't overcome the bully!
