Review
Take the theoretical work of Dorothea Ross and Daniel Olweus, mix in some quality curricula on bullying, and add two decades of practice wisdom, and you will have a highly useful resource in this new book on bullying. . . . This book is easy to read, well researched, and filled with bits of knowledge that practitioners with varying degrees of experience will appreciate. --Lynn Merlone, Connections, New Hampshire School Counselor Newsletter
Throughout the book, theories drawn from research are illustrated by and supported with anecdotes from Davis' own experiences as a therapist, counselor, and program facilitator. Each chapter begins with a relevant quote from another author on the topic, and concludes with suggestions for further reading. Chapters are concise and to the point, with key ideas presented in shaded boxes next to the main text. --Erin Smith Hill, New York School Psychologist
Now in an updated second edition, Schools Where Everyone Belongs demystifies what bullying is and common myths about its effects, what doesn't work to combat it, and most importantly of all, classroom-tested methods that do work to stop bullying and reverse its harmful effects. --Midwest Book Review --This text refers to an alternate Paperback edition.

An absolute "must-have" for grade school teachers and principals everywhere.,
By Midwest Book Review (Oregon, WI USA) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Schools Where Everyone Belongs: Practical Strategies for Reducing Bullying (Paperback)
Written by family and child therapist and school counselor Stan Davis, Where Everyone Belongs: Practical Strategies for Reducing Bullying is a highly practical guide written especially for schoolteachers and other educational professionals, yet invaluable for anyone who oversees groups of children. Now in an updated second edition, Schools Where Everyone Belongs demystifies what bullying it is and common myths about its effects, what doesn't work to combat it, and most importantly of all, classroom-tested methods that do work to stop bullying and reverse its harmful effects. "When there are inconsistent consequences for bullying, young people are likely to continue. When we have to customize a consequence for each incident, the process of discipline becomes impossibly time-consuming. Planned, rubric-based consequences take much less time to administer and thus can be used more consistently. When consequences are predictable and based on a clear rubric, young people can learn from each other's misdeeds." An absolute "must-have" for grade school teachers and principals everywhere.
