The Juice Box Bully Empowering Kids to Stand Up for Others Bob Sornson Maria Dismondy 9781933916729 Books Reviews
- I ordered another Bob Sornson book (about empathy) earlier in the summer, and it was good but not great. I was a little hesitant about this book, but I'm very impressed! The language is kid-friendly, and it's not too wordy. There was a big problem with transitions in the book about empathy, but not in this book. The kids look middle-school age from the illustrations, but the book is still very appropriate to use with elementary kids. The kids in Mr. Peltzer's class have all promised not to be bullies or bystanders, and a new student (Pete) shakes things up. They try to be nice to him anyway, but a girl gets (understandably) upset when Pete squirts purple juice from a juice box on her mostly white shirt. She gets mad, tries to get others to break the promise to be nice to everyone, and walks away. While she's calming down, we discover Pete was bullied at his old school and is bullying at his new school as a defense mechanism. Pete agrees to make the anti-bullying promise, and the girl comes back and apologizes. A happy ending that may not be entirely realistic but that shows kids that there are reasons why bullies bully and that even kids who are trying to be nice may get upset and say things out of anger but can make better choices once they've had time to calm down.
- This is a really good book! I love how this works to teach kids that they can stand up and say I like you, but I will not tolerate bad behavior. Good boundaries are so critical, and it is perhaps one of the hardest things we have to teach kids - share, don't share, be tolerant, but don't be walked on, etc. This book does a really good job of showing kids how they can be tolerant without being walked on. That path is through boundaries and forgiveness. Give it a go - we read it prior to buying, but I would buy it just based on the book itself. It is good.
- This was one of the best books that I purchased as a gift for an Enthusiastic reader. It was a huge hit. What a nice way to teach kids not only about bullies but that there is something deeper going on with some bullies. This is definitely a book that you should read with your children because they might need some explanations or examples. I can't say enough about this book. Try it, you will feel the same way.
- This book didn't inspire my class to be annoying tattle tales or over-righteous, but helped them to understand that you shouldn't be scared to say something when you see unpleasant things happened to someone else. It also had the redeeming of the bully by explaining why he did it in a way that made sense. Our class all signed anti-bullying pledges after reading this which are posted on our classroom wall. If we see something going on we will speak up, even if it is just by telling a grown up, as it doesn't suggest doing anything drastic that would land yourself in any trouble... Good advice for realistic situations.
- I bought this book because my daughter is doing an anti-bullying campaign. She read it to kindergarten through fourth graders and it seem to keep their attention pretty well. The story is cute too! I also bought no bowling stickers off of for her to pass out that day. Cute lesson! You will not regret buying this book.
- "The Juice Box Bully" adds a new dimension to my weekly lessons for 2nd and 3rd graders. Most character education programs I have observed/read about focus on establishing high expectations for student behavior and appropriate interventions by the teacher. Both of these are absolutely essential components, but "The Juice Box Bully" takes it one (very important) step further by illustrating that kids can acquire skills to solve their OWN problems.
There is a surprising twist to the story when one of the kids reminds the others that treating people fairly applies to the bully as well (what???), while he makes it clear to the bully that he also must adhere to the class promise. Too many times, I've seen just the opposite, that children who bully others are demonized by the other kids, something that actually feeds more negative behavior. This simple story illustrates to kids a fundamental truth, that stooping to the level of the wrong doer does not solve the problem. - This book is great for character Ed education in bullying. it has A very cute oath that I love to hand out to my students after reading it. The kids are very entertained by the story and it allows them to reflect on their own experiences. I read it to my fourth graders, and make a complete leak out of this book. Wonderful addition to my classroom library. This book is great for character Ed education. The kids are very entertained by the story and it allows them to reflect on their own experiences.
