Bullies Are a Pain in the Brain 9 reviews
Trevor Romain
Free Spirit Publishing, 1997
A Must for Classrooms Across America
As an elementary principal, this book was loved by students and always checked out from the library. Trevor has a wonderful grasp on bullies and helps students in a sincere, motivating way. The dvd is super if you haven't checked into owning it. It's priced well and the animation/music is highly engaging. The material is solid and right-on with what I saw as an elementary principal and in dealing ...

GREAT book!
My 11 year old son rolled his eyes when I handed him this book. I came back a half an hour later and he had finished it! He was so excited and told me so many things on how he can do his homework better. He said it was very funny also. He learned a lot and really enjoyed the book!

This book speaks to children at their level on a lot of subjects where parents are often lost for words. Like going to the hospital. Each subject is written like a poem and illustrated.

Under the Big Sky2 reviews
HarperCollins, 2001
A Gift to Keep Giving
Trevor Romain has created a wonderful fable about the meaning of life that all kids (young and old) should read. Our main character, in his search for the meaning of life and ultimate riches, learns some very important lessons along the way. Buy it. Read it often for yourself, and more importantly to your kids. A DEFINITE MUST AS A GRADUATION GIFT.

The Fraction Family Heads West3 reviews
Bookaloppy Pr, 1997
Very entertaining and delightful
This book is good for integrating reading and math. There are five cases of alliteration and two anachronisms. Plus, on the middle pages there is something missing from one of the pictures! Very engaging and kids love it!

What on Earth Do You Do When Someone Dies? 6 reviews
Trevor Romain
Free Spirit Publishing, 1999
Honestly Helpful
I searched through all the books on the amazon website related to helping children face death of a loved one. I read all the reviews, ordered all the books that sounded good. I then read all the books that sounded good and this is my top pick. I gave it to a five year old whose grandmother had died. His father told me that it helped him just as much as his son. I am writing this review, sadly, ...

Stuck in the Middle1 review
Trevor Romain
Bright Books (TX), 1995
Diversity
Stuck in the Middle is an excellent book that deals with difficulties that kids experience while growning up. Diversity and bullying are the two mentioned. While a picture book, I use this book with my middle school students, since it deals with the above topics so well. Hary the Horse is spotted, actually overly spotted. He feels he doesn't fit in with his fellow horsemates and thinks he ...
