Be a Buddy, Not a Bully, by Reuben L. Nevels, Sr., is heartwarming and empowers children between the ages of 4-9 to be kind. This educational book also teaches children how to express empathy while understanding the importance of standing up for others. Told through the eyes of Reese, a young student, the book follows a classroom discussion with Ms. Baker as she gently explains these four types of bullying -- physical, verbal, social, and cyber -- and shows children how to recognize them.
With relatable examples, positive solutions, and a Kindness Circle that inspires students to lift one another up, this story helps children see that they have the power to be upstanders instead of bystanders.
Perfect for classrooms, storytimes, and bedtime reading, Be a Buddy, Not a Bully gives children practical tools to recognize bullying when it happens, understand how to respond safely, build confidence to speak up, and practice everyday acts of kindness.
Parents, teachers, and other professionals will appreciate the gentle approach to a tough topic, while children will see themselves in the characters and feel encouraged to help make their school and community bully-free.
