Books can create empathy. Books can build self-esteem. Books can offer insight and coping strategies. Books can encourage anti-bullying. Books can heal. The five discussion guides in the "Words That Heal: Using Children's Literature to Address Bullying" unit module provide discussion questions and writing prompts for the themes addressed in stories that appeal to different age groups. The module also offers instructor background information about bullying and a bibliography of books for all grade levels that address bullying. Perfect for October's Bullying Prevention Month.
