"Bobby, the Blue-Footed Booby Gets Bullied" is a children's picture book for approximately ages 4-8. It is a story about a young bird that recently moved to a new home in the Galapagos Islands. His concerns and fears about going to a new school are realized when he meets a bully, Sally the Lightfoot Crab.
