Author #111: Books against Bullying by Erin Frankel
Erin Frankel's series of books by Free Spirit Publishing cover the ever present problem of bullying. The three books show the same scenario from different perspectives: Dare is told by the bystander, Weird is told by the subject of the bullying and Tough is told by the person doing the bullying. At the end of each book are steps each one can take to change behavior to getting along instead of victimizing or standing by the side. Some of the lessons learned include: In Dare Jayla refuses to take part in the bullying and encourages other kids to help instead of watching. In Tough Sam learns that taking her anger out on others doesn't help her own situation. In Weird Luisa learns that she is not to blame if someone bullies her and she doesn't have to change to please them; she can have confidence in herself and what she likes.
