I would like to know if this song comes from a true story? I know there are lots of Wands's out there including my daughter Gabrielle who was sexually harrassed in fourth grade. She is a survivor. My son Joshua was bullied and tortured for years starting in middle school and through high school and then tried to commit suicide in high school due to all the bullying! Thanks for writing the song!!! Hi!

This song was played at her memorial service at school and at her funeral. The allegations were not true and the bullies have a Class A misdemeanor for premeditated manslaughter and bullying charges against them with a minimum of 10 years to a maximum of life. Their trial awaits for 01/24/2012. RIP Leslie Anne Ryan. 10/25/1996 - 10/12/2011. Hanged herself with a belt from garage.

I came across it while researching bullying. I was curious to find out if Wanda was a real person or a construct which is how I came to find your site. As a "Wanda" myself, I want to thank you for having the courage to write this piece. As an aside, I am a writer and I was fascinated by the creative process that you went through to create Wanda's Song. A wonderful, empathetic song. I came across it while researching bullying.

He travelled in a band to Lacombe alberta Canada in the late 1980's. He was the bass guitarist. We were pen pals for awhile and we lost touch. My maiden name is Lundie and I am wondering if this would be the same John Paul I had met. Thank you for your time. He was a brilliant musician/lyricist and human being. Would love to find him:) Hello

It was so touching, and so appropriate with the rash of suicides that have been in the media recently due to bullying. I have a website containing information for parents and teens giving information on cyberbullying. Hopefully through awareness this new form of bullying can be contained. Thank you for creating a beautiful song to words that so many children feel. Your song appeared on a youtube video regarding bullying and suicides.

You guys should make a music video out of it! (let me star in it lolz-I'm trying to get my big break). But seriously-this is a really good song, with a really strong message that needs to be heard and affects so many people and students in every school. It's a beautiful song. Great job!

For a presentation, 3 of us want to perform Wanda's Song. It is perfect for what we are trying to make fellow students understand. I was going to play guitar for it, while we sang, but i can't find the chords anywhere! Please, if you would make the chords available somehow, it would really help us out, and mean a lot to our school. I understand if this isn't possible, but please consider it. Thank you, Tanya Dear Reading Brothers,

We have been so busy. We have a few more books published and are currently revising 240 lesson plans. I still want to do something with "WANDA" in the future. We haven't song any "Wanda" CD - why I don't know. It's a great song and I still play it during my presentations and refer people to your website. I sent it to my publisher, but they aren't prepared to deal with CDs. Do I have your permission to include the lyrics in one of my lesson plans? The lesson requires students to discuss the song and its messages. Alllan Beane Eric,
