  • Summary:

    Faced with moving to a new school, Jake decides to make the best of the situation. He quickly meets new friends, and they encounter bullies in the cafeteria. Together they discover new ways to deal with them.

    This book was written and illustrated by Pat Trutner and Dee Dee Sutherland, two mothers who saw a problem first hand with how bullies can have a huge impact on the development of a child. It is important to recognize the problem and remedy it.

    Our Mission is to empower children to deal with bullies and also to stand up for others who are being bullied.

    In addition, we want the bully to know that if he wants to change, young children can accept him as a friend.


    Review:


    There's Always a Bully is a story of how a bully can change his ways. Even though Jake and his friends were getting bullied by Eddie and Danny, they see an opportunity to befriend Danny, who only bullies others because Eddie encourages it. When Danny realizes that its nice to have friends and be liked, he changes his ways and stands up to the person who also bullies him.

    This story shows others how they can stand up to bullies and how to also show forgiveness. Children of all ages will enjoy this 25 page soft cover chapter book and learn how to handle situations they may be involved in. The author also includes suggestions on how to handle various situations at the end of the book.

    3. This sounds like a good book for teachers to read as well, and then make available to their classes. Bullying is such a hard thing for kids to deal with -- and not good for the bullies, either! Nice review, Renee.
