Julia Donaldson, author of Gruffalo books: "This book sets out a positive and refreshing approach to bullying which really makes sense to children, parents and teachers. I wish it had been around when my own children were at school."
Gervase Phinn, author and broadcaster: Emily, in her clearly written and powerfully persuasive book, considers the causes of bullying and offers so much practical and useful advice for parents and all those who work with children. She stresses that no one deserves to be bullied, that those who are subjected to bullying should realise it is not their fault. Her message is clear: bullying should never be tolerated or ignored because it won’t go away – it must be tackled. This splendid handbook should be on the shelf of every parent and teacher.
