Bully the Bull's feelings are hurt when he is asked to GO AWAY! Not realizing he might have pent up feelings from being yelled at, he begins to mistreat others by yelling at them, name calling, and glaring. When one of the animals stands up to Bully, Bully is shocked and dismayed. What will Bully the Bull do next? A simple, yet powerful message about bullying and how hurtful it can be to others.
Best for Pre-K and up, and for adults and children to read and discuss together.
Billy is a cool kid with many reasons to smile. He has friends. He is kind to people and animals. He even has a great smile (even with a tooth sticking out!). When a classmate continuously teases and berates him, Billy tries to stand up to the bully but the plan backfires. Billy begins to internalize the comments and questions himself and his abilities. Things get so bad that Billy refuses to go to school. Ultimately, Billy decides to put his feelings aside and tell the bully about the consequences of his actions. Will Billy's statement make an impact on the bully?
THE LITTLE BULLY by BETH BRACKEN would be great to share at home or in a classroom.
For children in Pre-K and up, and for adults and children to read and discuss together.
In life, we all have probably apologized to our loved once after hurting them with words or actions. However, how cool would it be if next time, we apologize with poems? I know this might sound too boring or too weird. But you know, after reading this great book about forgiveness and apology. I am starting to think that since evidently we all find ourselves asking for forgiveness, than why not do it in a unique way which will hopefully increase the chances of you being forgiven. The book is divided into two parts, one part is the apologetic poems, and the second part is the responses to these poems. It also has has tons of cute and hilarious illustrations. THIS IS JUST TO SAY: POEMS OF APOLOGY AND FORGIVENESS is by JOYCE SIDMAN and the illustrations are by PAMELA ZAGARENSKI.
For grades 3rd and up.
