The Bully Book

(3) 4-6 The clever premise has sixth-grade "Grunt" Eric Haskins investigating a mysterious how-to guide on bullying circulating the school. Alternating between Eric's journal entries and passages from The Bully Book, the narrative conveys both the perspective of the bullies' unfortunate target but also the vulnerability of the "bully bookers" themselves. Readers will cheer for Eric as he regains control of his life.
