For some kids, school is a place full of friends and fun. For
others, though, it is a lonely place where bullies pick on them and
it feels impossible to be brave. Meet Scott, Buttons and Duncan,
otherwise known as A Boy, His Bear and a Bully. Scott takes Buttons
to school with him every day to help him feel brave. He has to,
because every day, Duncan is mean to him. Just this week, Duncan
has called him names, ripped his painting, and stolen his snack
from his lunchbox. Then Buttons goes missing. With his one comfort
gone, Scott has to look elsewhere to find his brave, and much to
his surprise, he does. A Boy, His Bear and a Bully addresses the
global issue of bullying in a hopeful, gentle way that will
resonate with children who have been on either side of a bullying
incident. Seeing Scott learn to stand up for himself will help
children who feel afraid of bullies face them in a constructive
way. Scott's bravery also inspires his friend Rosie to report
Duncan's bad behaviour to a teacher, giving children a positive
model of assertive behaviour. Scott's situation is extremely common
across the world. His story provides children with clear guidance
on what to do if they are also being bullied, and on the role
friends should play in such a scenario. It is a sensitive,
inspiring conversation starter for children, carers, professionals,
and anyone who wishes they could be brave.
