Description
We've all seen bullies in action. Many of us have been the victims. Some of us have been the perpetrator. Thanks to all the attention being focused on bullies and the issues that surround them, most of us are getting the information we need. But if we're raising children in this culture of bullying or if we're part of the village that helps, we also need some effective and user-friendly tools to go up against the bully. We need some very specific and action-oriented strategies to help every child feel welcomed and valued. And that's the reason why Bud Ramey and Bobby Kipper wrote No BULLIES.
