Kate Winslet speaks against bullying

Oscar-winning actress Kate Winslet is helping kids stand up for themselves because she knows what it's like to be bullied. Winslet, 40, has admitted that bullies made fun of her appearance growing up, reported People magazine.

As an adult, the actress has cultivated a positive body image and made it her mission to help others build self-confidence.

Daisy Chain is a whimsical story about a young girl who is bullied, and through the help of a friend she learns to create a "daisy chain" so strong that even her bullies can't break it down.

The five-minute video with hand-drawn animation was inspired by Davis' 9-year-old son, who came home from school and confided in his father about being picked on by a peer.

Along with the short film, Daisy Chain is also an illustrated book, an app and character figurines.
