I wonder how Jenny's 'unique way' can do to solved one of the biggest problem in human nature. I love the idea that this is not limited to specific reader, I might give it a read too. Thank you for the review! Congrats to author for BOTD!.

Bullying has a way of affecting one's self esteem. It should be stopped. I would love to know how if Henry later became a hero though. Thanks for the review.

The book discusses bullying among children in a unique way. The liked the way the bully's side of the story is also addressed, with as much seriousness as the one being bullied. Great for the author to use such a topic to insight the readers.

Bullying is really a serious problem and I think we all have faced bullying in our early childhood and can feel the anguish of this. While anyone being bullied, it impact on so many aspects of life like lacking of confidence and being not able to describe the problem anyone is facing. Therefore, I have become curious to read the entire concept of this book so that we can help any child who is the victim of this. I would definitely like to read this and whatever the solution is described in book, I would like to apply it in real time.

Thanks and regards.

Thank you for your great review. It seems like bullying is everywhere any more. It occurs whether someone is different, the only one in a different situation, or out of meanness or trying to act tougher. We've talked a lot about it in our home, whether it was several years ago when my son was bullied, or if anyone else he knows is being bullied and what it means. I like that kindness helps rid bullies. I'm going to add this to my list of books to read.

Bullying is a huge issues nowadays. It's everywhere, and most bullies themselves come from a difficult background or lack of attention which leads them the wrong way. It's mighty helpful that the book addresses this issue and that it's a children's book. Congrats on BOTD!!

This is a wonderful children's book with important lessons on understanding and facing bullies. My little ones and I would enjoy reading Henry and Jenny's action in ending the bullying. I would highly recommend it to parents and child care givers. Thank you for a delightful review.

It is disheartening to see that parents send theire childre to school to learn and there they become victims of bullying. This book should be read by teachers, students and parents so that we can tackle this problem. Thank you for such a wonderful review.

As someone who was bullied in primary school herself, I can relate. I think it will be interesting to see how Henry became a hero and not just a victim.

Bullying, especially in elementary school, is indeed a serious problem. It's a praiseworthy effort for this author to address such a vital topic in an interesting and unique way. I don't read kid's staffs, but I can recommend this to parents.
