Freckleface Strawberry and the Dodgeball Bully by Julianne Moore. There are a number of actors/actresses, singers, personalities, etc... that have written books. This one talks about facing your fears and trying to understand others. Maybe there's a few out there that were not apprehensive about dodgeball but I was one who wanted the game to end quickly with a minimum number of hard hits. There were teachers that encouraged "gentle" outs and others that wanted us to "toughen up" and take our hits without a whimper. I think this book has a point that sometimes the anticipation is worse than the actual action and sometimes bullies aren't the same in real life as in our imagination.See an interview with Ms.Moore about the book at: http://www.wowowow.com/culture/interview-julianne-moore-parenting-writing-acting-balancing-motherhood-career-314662
