Maxine liked to pick on kids... especially Winston. Winston is the smartest kid in our whole school. Maxine made him do all of her homework and give her all of his lunch money. Maxine liked to make Winston cry... then she'd call him a crybaby.

"If you don't do exactly what I tell you to, I'll knock you into next week!"

Nobody liked the way Maxine treated Winston, but we were too afraid to do anything about it.

Written by bestselling author Julia Cook, Bully B.E.A.N.S. reminds children of the power of their voice and how to use it effectively when standing up against bullying. Bullies Everywhere Are Now Stopped!

Thank you for this updated version of Bully B.E.A.N.S.! The new illustrations are wonderful. I appreciate that the text has been condensed a bit because it really does a lot to hold the attention of children. Julia Cook always comes through with social-emotional books that are engaging and informative, without over-explaining or preaching. This book is great for helping students work together to stop bullying even if it feels scary or impossible. Snatch it up if your elementary teacher in any capacity, a school counselor, or a behavior specialist. You won't be disappointed!
