Book Reviews of My Secret Bully
Book Review: There will always be bullies; learning to cope with them is key
Summary: 5 Stars
When my 6 year old daughter broke down and told me that some girls in her first grade class were not being nice to her, the first thing that I did was cry. When I finally could talk about it, I told her teacher from Kindergarten who lent me her copy of My Secret Bully. My daughter and I read it over and over again. We talked about the similarities between her situation and Monica's. She was surprised and relieved to realize that she was not the only person who had a "friend" who suddenly was not very nice to her. She asked me to share it with her teacher, which I did while we were discussing what was occuring in my daughter's classroom. I gave her a copy of the book (and also a copy to head of the lower school).
She read it to the class and they discussed it. It took some intervention on my part and the part of the school to stop the unkind behavior, but throughout the process, my daughter slept with My Secret Bully at the foot of her bed. Three months later, I still see her pick it up and read it from time to time. There will always be bullies, but my hope is that My Secret Bully will help her to cope now and in the years ahead.
