Even in the best of circumstances, being the new kid in school isn't easy--and it's doubly hard when you're the victim of bullying. When Chrissa (Sammi Hanratty) and her family move in with her recently widowed grandmother (Michael Learned), Chrissa is forced to leave her old school (and best friend) and start at a new school in the middle of the school year. An established clique of three girls, dubbed the Mean Bees, welcomes Chrissa by putting her down on her very first day, and their bullying only increases as the days progress. Chrissa suffers in silence as the girls steal her permission slip for swimming club, spread rumors about her having an infectious skin disease, and post inflammatory pictures that dub her the "loser llama girl." Though Chrissa tries hard to make new friends, her efforts are rebuffed even by fellow student Gwen (Kaitlyn Dever), who really seems like she could use a good friend. What Chrissa learns from her experience is that by speaking up, she can protect herself and make a huge difference at her school. Best of all, Chrissa finds some true friends in the process. An American Girl: Chrissa Stands Strong is a quality film about a timely subject that will entertain as well as edify young girls ages 6 and older. --Tami Horiuchi

In the hands of the wrong 4th grader, this film is the ultimate `for dummies' guidebook to power and popularity though bullying, manipulation, cruelty, fear, humiliation, and snobbery without empathy, regret, regard for others, or concern for consequences. If your daughter is a Queen Bee, a Sidekick, a Banker, or a Pleaser/Wannabee/Messaenger, be advised- this film could give them the tools to perfect the sophistication of their power strategy (Read Rosalind Wiseman's Queen Bees and Wannabees to ...

This is a great movie for kids. Viewers are able to see bullying, what it is and the effects. It opens a dialogue about what kids can do about bullying. This is an excellent movie!
