Poor Rodney has a speech impediment making him replace his R's with W's. All of his classmates giggle and laugh with each wabbit, wat, and Wodney that he says. Then one day a bigger and meaner bully shows up - Camilla Capybara. Now all of the students are cowed into submission, but Rodney, the shyest of them all, proves to be Camilla's undoing.
A cute and enduring tale about teasing. A good lesson as well in word families and language.

Nice book. Could be used as an effective teaching tool for classes learning about speech impediments or differences among children. Also messages about bullying. Great illustrations.

We bought this book to read to the boys. I'll be mailing it to them. I gave it a quick read first.

This was cute, but I feel like the moral messaging here is highly questionable.

I don’t think this book was a good fit; like I understand the premise but also no one tried to be nice to new girl once after she started? Like I’m sure she was just nervous.

This is officially one of my favorite picture books ever. Wodney Wat is the only boy at rodent school with trouble pronouncing his r's. This is a problem until a new bully arrives at school who doesn't know to not take Rodney's speech literally and Rodney's speech impediment saves the day!
Great for bullying/manners themes and for kids with speech impediments or shyness. HILARIOUS for read-a-louds!
