Customer Reviews

Bullying and Christianity

I am co-author of the book (and want to thank Dr. Larson for including me in on the project). I think that it is important for readers to understand that the book is mostly about bullying from a Christian perspective. The subjects in the listing do not, in my view, adequately reflect this. I hope readers enjoy it and find it useful. In my work on bullying, I have often longed to look at spirituality and leadership issues--both of which Scott addressed beautifully in the volume. Thanks, John HooverAlso, see the Bullying Prevention Handbook for more information on the same topic.

Incredible book!

We have started using this book in our youth group and found that it has put the finger on so many issues we were dealing with. The issues of teasing and bullying that were just part of our group are now being exposed through the six part youth group series in the back of the book, and kids are taking ownership of it, and wanting to change that. It's been awesome!

Incredible book!

This book is incredible. The author knows kids well. It has been so helpful for us to sensitize our kids to reaching out to others that are so easily neglected. Great for teachers, youth group leaders and any others who work with kids.
