4年生のBradleyは問題児。4年生を落第しているし、嘘もつくし、クラスメイトには悪態をついたりする。先生も皆も嫌っている。そんな時、カウンセラーが学校にやってきてカウンセリングを受けることになる。はじめは反発していたBradleyだが、徐々に変化が....。
周りから「monster」扱いをされるBradleyがCarlaと関わることで少しずつ自分像を変える努力をし、自分の力で周りから受け入れられるまでの話。

"Well, how does a monster stop being a monster?" he asked. "I mean, if everyone sees only a monster, and they keep treating him like a monster, how does he stop being a monster?"
"It isn't easy," Carla said. "I think, first, he has to realize for himself that he isn't a monster. That, I think, is the first step. Until he knows he isn't a monster, how is anybody else supposed to know?"
