Product Description

In this insightful and winsome story, Robin, a seven-year-old girl, sees Bobby, the new kid in the neighborhood, being teased and bullied by other kids. Bobby dresses differently and is very small for his age. Robin wants to help Bobby, but doesn't know how so she asks her parents for help.

After witnessing firsthand the teasing that Bobby has to endure, Robin's mother talks to Bobby and Robin's teacher, Ms. Wells. Ms. Wells develops a clever class activity to teach the children that everyone is different, but these differences should not be grounds for bullying. Using puppets, the children come to see the good in everyone, no matter how different. This informative book is a must read for all parents of young children who may be or are dealing with bullies and teasing at school.

Right on Target5
I like the way the author presents a story about a girl who feels compassion for a classmate who is being bullied. So often people stand by helplessly and ignore situations like this. The child doesn't want to tattle but what she sees is so wrong she must confide in her parents. The teacher and the counselor become involved. The counselor has children participate in a puppet show where children do some role playing.

The victim gains confidence to behave more bravely and the bullies learn to respect differences.

The author includes lists of valuable resources and suggestions for adults, peers, victims, as well as ways to help bullies change. The discussions about the book are very effective. Teachers and counselors can use the kind of puppet show which the counselor used in the book.

The author works as a preschool service coordinator and behavioral consultant. She gives emotional and social support to children with special needs and their families.

Excellent Book5
My daughter loves this book. My daughter is Autistic and pictures with stories is the best way for my daughter to completely understand. This book provides that for her. Also the topic is important for any children but for one that is Autistic it is I feel more important.
