Review of In the Face of Adversity
[Following is an official OnlineBookClub.org review of "In the Face of Adversity" by Grace Akinpetide PhD.]
A children's book titled "In the Face of Adversity" was written by Grace Akinpetide, PhD. The book discusses bullying and offers a potential solution to the problem. Ayomikun has always had a passion for science and experiments, and she has always dreamed of being a scientist. Unfortunately, a young man named Lucas bullies her when she attends school. She is encouraged to speak out for herself by her parents and friends when they learn about the struggles she has been going through. Will she be able to muster the ability to do so?
Despite the fact that this book has a relatively small number of pages, it nevertheless has a great deal of text and information, which leads me to feel that it is most appropriate for children who are between the ages of 8 and 12. Not only does the book discuss bullying and the importance of sticking up for oneself, but it also discusses the importance of receiving support from family, friends, and the school. Additionally, the book inspires children to pursue their goals and ambitions. I adored the illustrations, and I sincerely wished that there were additional illustrations included in the book for the youngsters to enjoy.
I loved the messages that were in this book, and I am confident that it will assist a great number of children who are victims of bullying and, perhaps, inspire children to stand up for one another and not just for themselves. The illustrations were also visually appealing, and I always looked forward to seeing them whenever I had the opportunity to do so. As much as I enjoyed reading this book, there is one thing that I am concerned about, which is, of course, beyond the author's ability to manage. The fact that not all children have a support system when it comes to bullying. I wish there were more books that addressed this problem with children who do not have a support structure.
I gave this book a perfect score of 5 out of 5 stars because there was nothing about it that I found bad. It was beyond the author's ability to control the issue that I had, as I said earlier. The age range that I suggested it to would gain a great deal of knowledge from reading this book, and it had more than one message included for them. Due to the fact that I did not discover any mistakes in the book, I feel that it was edited to perfection.
I would suggest that children between the ages of 8 and 12 read this book because of the possibility that it could be too much for younger children to handle. The children who are being bullied are the ones to whom I personally recommend this to.

I think it's a wonderful childerens book. It learns children to pursue their passions and dreams. It's discussed that bullying isin't good, and that childeren that get bullied should stand up for themselves, and tell their teacher, family, or friends, so childeren can gain support from them. I think this can really help childeren to be and feel safe.
