The Blurb On The Back:

You might want to read this book because you are being bullied. Or maybe you know a person who is being bullied and you want to help them. Or perhaps you’re worried that you’re bullying someone and you want to understand how to stop …

This book contains practical, straightforward information and advice to help you to understand more about dealing with bullying.

The Verdict:

Louise Spilsbury is an experienced author of non-fiction books for children across a range of subjects. Having been bullied as a child, I wish that I’d had this sensitive guide for readers aged 9+ (part of a series) to dealing with bullying of all types but which also addresses readers who may not realise they are bullying others. Scott Garrett’s illustrations work well with the text and there are useful resources at the end of the book

The Blurb On The Back:

The Verdict:

Tim Collins is an award-winning children’s author of both fiction and non-fiction. This sensitive book (part of a series) guides readers aged 9+ through what happens when their parents split up and their emotional response to the same and Scott Garrett’s illustrations complement the text well. However although there is good advice here I wanted some recognition of when a divorce is happening due to abuse due to the challenges it throws up.
