HOW TO TREAT A 'BULLY' August 31, 2008
1 out of 1 found this review helpful

AS A RETIRED PRE-SCHOOL TEACHER AND GRANDMOTHER TO JAKE, 4 AND ROWAN 10 MONTHS, I ENJOYED THE UNIVERSIALITY OF THE THEM OF THE BULLIED CHILD BEING GIVEN A WAY TO OVERCOME BEING THE OBJECT OF BULLYING AND YET NOT GIVING IN TO THE NATURAL IMPULSE TO RETALIATE IN KIND. "MY" JACOB ENJOYED READING ABOUT ANOTHER JAKE AND RECOGNIZED HIS "BEAR-BEAR" AS HIS "SOMETHING." WE HAD INTERESTING DISCUSSIONS ABOUT HOW TO AND HOW NOT TO TREAT CLASSMATES AND FRIENDS, EVEN THOSE OF WHOM WE WERE NOT PARTICULARLY FOND. WE ALSO DISCUSSED THE "SOMETHINGS" OF FRIENDS AND FAMILY.

AN ENJOYABLE ADDITION TO JACOB'S EXTENSIVE PERSONAL LIBRARY AND A "MUST" FOR THE SHELVES OF NURSERIES AND PRESCHOOLS EVERYWHERE.
