Among the 'quick facts' Katie quotes (from studies cited in the backmatter) is that 74 percent of eight to 11-year-olds report that bullying occurs in their schools. While Katie used words, body language and silence to bully her friend Monica, she also describes cyber-bullying and physical bullying. Her counselor’s six 'empower tools' offer excellent responses beyond the well-mean

Reseña del editor:

After Katie gets caught teasing a schoolmate, she's sent to the school counselor to learn how to be a better friend; before long Katie realizes that bullying hurts others as well as herself, in a story told from the point of view of the bullier rather than the bullied, and one that provides kids with real-life tools they can use to identify and stop relational aggression.
