tells the story of a reversal of fortunes. Read along as the mocked little underdog is able to rise above the bullies and turn his fear back around onto them. Things are not always as they seem, and you can't judge a Thing by its size... About the Author Frank Tislerics was born in Hungary in 1940. He left in 1956, ending up in Canada where he acquired Landed Immigrant status. There, he focused on the intricacies, nuances (and spelling!) of the English language. After his three-year stint in the Canadian Army, he was honorably released and furthered his education studying engineering drafting and tool and die design. Tislerics was then recruited by a Michigan firm and moved to the United States in 1968. He married his wife, Rosalie, in 1971 and they raised their three children in Detroit. Tislerics has always been an avid reader and held an interest in languages, which proved to be to his benefit as he had to learn, live, and adjust to new and different circumstances in North America.
