Editorial Reviews

04/01/2014
PreS-Gr 1—This series strives to promote character development and show children at an early age that bullying is unacceptable. The first-person narration from a child's point of view lessens the didactic qualities of the themes, and the clear, straightforward writing helps make concepts such as fairness, responsibility, and respect easily comprehensible to young readers. There isn't much text here, but the messages about how to be a good citizen and friend are clear ("I tell the truth. Kids who bully lie."). Although these are very slim volumes, they are effective ways to make children aware of bullying and its negative effects.
