Bullying is explained in simple terms and by children who have been bullied in particular ways - a very effective approach. The excuse of 'only teasing' in not acceptable, and it is explained that the child being bullied is never to blame. Details such as where bullying might take place, what sort of people bully and what sort tend to be the victims are covered, and we learn that bullies are often victims themselves. The importance of finding someone to talk to is emphasised, as well as the fact that teachers and parents can do things to help. Feeling self-confident is important, as is having good friends. A glossary, an index and a list of organisations and websites make this excellent for teaching purposes, particularly at lower primary level. Large print and lots of full colour photos.
