Bobette has everyone frightened, even if they are not the target of her bullying, with her bullying ways.
This story follows one of the bystanders, how she feels about Bobette, and her confusion as to how to handle the situation. After talking with her mother, she learns of a solution that she takes back to the other children. The solution is the Bully B.E.A.N.S. “Eat a Bully Bean and then stand together and face Bobette,” is what her mother tells her and what she tells the other children. Will it work? This latest story by noted author, Julia Cook, focuses on bystanders and gives them a solution other than standing by and worrying they may be the next victim.
