Review
As how-to manuals for teachers, these two volumes. . . serve as comprehensive educational and team building guides, and they function as classroom curriculum resources. For K-8 school counselors who are looking to take the lead with a proven program to combat bullying, 'Bully Busters' deserves serious consideration. --Larry L. Hill, Counseling Today, American Counseling Association

Bully Busters is a "MUST HAVE" - Two thumbs up!,
By A Customer
This review is from: Bully Busters: A Teacher's Manual for Helping Bullies, Victims, and Bystanders (Paperback)
Two thumbs up to the authors of Bully Busters. The manual is an outstanding display of primary prevention. With the advent of violence in our schools today, Bully Busters serves as a tool to educate readers about bullying and victimization, while simultaneously building their confidence through knowledge enhancement and skills acquisition. Bully Busters is easy to read and user friendly. Its modular format and coinciding activities are excellent. Bully Busters is a "must have" manual for teachers, school counselors, and professionals alike.

must read for all kids who get picked on!!,
By A Customer
This review is from: Bully Busters: A Teacher's Manual for Helping Bullies, Victims, and Bystanders (Paperback)
This is a wonderful book for helping kids deal with bullies and what not, and helped our family tremendously in dealing with the local "punk neighborhood kids." Plus, it also helped in raising my son's self-esteem, thus his social life improved dramatically. I'd like to personally thank Dawn Newman for writing such a great book. Now I don't have to worry about my kid coming home from school everyday crying with pinestraw down his clothes. Bully Busters did just that----it busted the bullies!!
