Book Description
Maya's friend Bailey loves to talk about everything and everyone. At first, Maya thinks Bailey is funny. But when Bailey's talk leads to harmful rumors and hurt feelings, Maya begins to think twice about their friendship. In her fourth book for children, relational aggression expert Trudy Ludwig acquaints readers with the damaging consequences of "trouble talk"--talking to others about someone else's troubles in order to establish connection and gain attention. Includes additional resources for kids, parents, and teachers, as well as advice from Trudy about how to combat trouble talk."Words do hurt, which is why this book is of paramount importance!"
--MARY A. BAIRD, President/CEO, The Ophelia Project "Trudy Ludwig gives educators and parents such wonderfully useful books and TROUBLE TALK is no exception. It teaches children social justice in ways that they can relate to and take with them into their classrooms and neighborhoods."
--ROSALIND WISEMAN, author of Queen Bees and Wannabees "Everyone knows a Big Mouth Bailey. In Trudy Ludwig's masterfully crafted story the bully is not vilified and the victims aren't vengeful, but clear boundary setters. We empathize with Big Mouth and want her to grow up to be just Bailey, an asset to our workplace, our families, and our communities."
--ANNETTE KLINEFELTER, author of Allies in Action, Building Healthy Relationships Between Girls

I loved this book!!! June 5, 2008
Smart book about how words can hurt a friendship--and how friendships can heal. Trudy Ludwig has made a difficult topic accessible to young readers. I recommend it highly.
Trudy does it again! May 21, 2008
Another great book by Trudy Ludwig! This is an excellent book for early elementary students. It would make a wonderful gift for the classroom. Teaching children early skills in conflict resolution is the way to a more peaceful adolescence, this books aids in the effort. A must have!
A much needed book! April 29, 2008
Trouble Talk, Trudy Ludwig's latest book, combines appealing characters, helpful adults, and great illustrations by Mikela Prevost to take on the important topic of rumors and gossip. Elementary school students, their parents, and their teachers will learn from this book- and enjoy themselves in the process.
