 Helps kids understand December 13, 2007
Good to read with school kids to help them understand avoid and/or handle difficult situations.

My son loves this book - he is 6. Gives a good portrayal of a bully and relatable humorous solutions to dealing with them.
A gem March 21, 2007
What a gem of a book. My 7-year-old loved it, and my 5-year-old has practically memorized it. Great lesson, well taught, and what kid couldn't use tips on how to deal with bullying.

The King of the Playground
By: Phyllis Renolds Naylor
This book can inspire little kids to stick up for themselves. It teaches little kids that a bad situation can always turn out good. A friend is always around the corner.
There are a lot of funny exaggerations.
On page 23 Sammy chases Kevin in a tank.
The illustrator did a good job of elaborating the colorful pictures.
On page 2 the author did a really good job of explaining his spider-man shirt and his horseshoe pants.
The writer really captured the roll of an elementary school bully.
On page 3 Sammy kicks Kevin off the monkey bars.
My opinion on this book is that it is a good lesson to stick up for yourself. There is always a friend out there for you. You just have to compromise a little bit and you will find someone.

I bought the book because my 4-year-old son had been on the receiving end of some of the unfriendly behaviors that are the basis of the book. My son loves the book. Aside from the fact that he gets the author's premise (reasoning rather than reacting), he just genuinely enjoys it. He laughs out loud at some of the situations in the book. It didn't trigger the meaningful discussion I'd hoped we'd have about bullies (unbridled parental optimism on my part there!), but it's made for a lot of fun bedtime reads.
