Dealing with Bullying

Book Details
Dealing with Bullying by Marianne Johnston includes information about what bullying is, how to deal with a bully, and helping a bully.  The book includes pictures that show instances of bullying with captions and several bold words which are included in the glossary.  The author shows that bullies are boys and girls, and this is reflected in the examples written.   At the end of the information about bullying there is a story about a child named Jason.  This book includes a table of contents, glossary, and index.  While at the library I noticed that this book is also written in Spanish/English.  This would be great for the students.

Review
I think that it does a nice job of summarizing what bullying is and providing some great examples of bullying.


Interest Age/Reading Level
This book is appropriate for grades 4^th and maybe 5^th.  It does break down some of the words which make this book is more for the younger grades and lower reading levels.
