Getting What I Deserve

Getting What I Deserve isn't just another book about standing up to bullies. It's about winning. It's about discovering your inner strength when everyone doubts you. And it's about knowing when to compromise-and when to stand your ground.

Then, on the first day of vacation, something inconceivable happens. Mark knocks on Charlie's door to apologize and offer friendship. Charlie's doubtful-does Mark even know how to be a friend?
