"Bucky Bear WAS A Bully" uses little animal characters to teach children a three-fold message: 1. Teach what to do if you are bullied--TELL SOMEONE! 2. Teach that even a little bully can change behavior before life-long bad habits are formed. 3. Teach that THERE IS SOMETHING SPECIAL ABOUT EVERYONE!Little "Bucky Bear" tips over Tommy Turtle and makes fun of Sammy Skunk calling him names like "Stinky". He laughs at Ollie Owl because of his big eyes and teases Billy Bunny about his hopping. Meanwhile, Bucky Bear learns a lesson when HE is bullied by a bigger bear. Bucky learns that you just have to be nice to have friends, and he apologizes to each of the little animals. They all become friends and are happy to play together.The illustration portrays the characters in a way that makes the reader feel the emotions of the bully and the little victims. This little story is a great teaching aid for parents, teachers and caregivers. The varied activities are not only fun but teach. The coloring portion allows the child to enjoy quiet, creative artistry. As a coloring/activity story book, it will reinforce a valuable message in a fun way to children at an early age. In a classroom or group setting, the topics of discussion allow children and adults to share understanding of both the bully and the victim.We cannot eliminate bullying, but we can minimize it by teaching children who are first able to understand the concept. Everyone says this is a timely subject. I say it always has been and always will be, but by teaching about bullying, WE CAN MAKE A DIFFERENCE!
