Our daughter loves this book

We bought this book for our 4-year old daughter when she started saying she didn't like the color of her hair and skin. We suspected some children in her pre-school had said something to her and hoped that this book might help her deal with their comments. She still says that she does not know any bullies, but the fact that she often asks us to read the book to her at bedtime suggests to me that it is helping her deal with her feelings. Importantly, shortly after reading it a few times, she started telling me that she liked her hair and skin.

The story is well told and even discusses why some children are bullies. It makes the point that even adults can be bullies and that this can cause children who have been bullied to become bullies themselves. While this is sad, bullying is never OK. The book offers advice on what to do if someone bullies you: tell an adult, be with people who love you.

We also use this book with our feisty 3-year old daughter, who can be a bit bossy with her peers. We talk to her about how saying certain things can hurt people's feelings and that we would never want her to be a bully.

I really recommend this book, both for victims of bullies and potential bullies.

Great book for mental health professionals, school staff and parents.

This is a well written book that can be read with grades k-4. This book is very detail oriented and discusses the various aspects of bullying and even has discussion questions throughout the book, so that you do not have to create your own if you don't want too. Great for individual therapy, or classroom wide activity.

A wonderful resource for helping victims of bullies!

My grandson is a "would be" bully; while my granddaughter is a perfect victim. Therefore, I bought the book to read to both of them...it worked! My grandson was infuriated that anyone would think about doing this to his sister, but I pointed out that he had done things similar to this to her. He hugged her and apologized.
Yeah! Great book!
