Cole, J. Bully trouble. Random House Books for Young Readers.1989
This book is a book enjoyed by many. This book is illustrated in full color and gives the affects of kids actually being involved in the book. "Bully Trouble" is by far one of the best books I have seen and read to introduce young children to. The book illustrates what a bully might look like and what a bully might do to harm someone. The book is a good introduction book for 2nd or 3rd graders because it is longer but not too long.
I personally enjoyed reading this book. I would use this book to tackle a bullying problem that may be happening in my classrooms. Reading this book to young students could show students how it hurts to be bullied and what people feel when they are bullied. However I would make sure to discuss that when you are bullied you're not supposed to react back rather get help from an adult.
This book is great for primary, intermediate, and upper grades because it involves all areas of students. The book details about how the one young boy was bullied and how older kids and adults reacted when he was bullied. Every day we hear of a kid being bullied and nothing really being done about it. I believe if this book was to be read to all students at an early age bullying would be something that people would not want to do because of fear of what may happen to someone.
BIG Question
1. Have you ever seen someone being bullied?
2. Have you been a victim of bullying or are you a bully?
3. How do you solve bully problems?
