Author Description

One in five children is bullied at school. Bullying can be overt: physical and verbal, or covert: passive - aggressive and excluding. Bullying can create a legacy for life if no one intervenes.? This book is a guide for 7 - 11 year old kids written by Clinical Psychologist Dr Lucy Blunt. In the form of a children's chapter book, it gives age - appropriate information aimed to ''upskill'' the child and give them ''bully - proof strategies'' for coping. Beating the Bullies also has two invaluable resource guides; one for parents (who often feel powerless and helpless at this time) and one for teachers (with class specific questions and activities). Illustrated by Dr Blunt's daughter Chloe Osborn.
