The Empathy Way Series includes three books: "Insides Out," "I'm Different You're Different," and "You Scared Me " This accompanying Teacher's Manual outlines the Empathy in Education Program: it provides an overview of research, guidelines for creating an empathic classroom environment, and a teacher's guide for using The Empathy Way book series in class. It offers ideas for additional classroom activities and supplemental materials, as well as a special section about understanding bullying and how to respond/intervene. The Teacher's Guide also presents The Empathy Buddy Program (which pairs an older student with a younger student for a mentor-type connection) and the Empathy at Home Program (which involves parents in generating empathic relationships.)

You Scared Me : Jenga and Laney are playing and minding their own business, when a bigger bonobo, Neeley, starts to harass them. Expressive photographs of bonobo apes illustrate how it feels to be bullied, what kids should do, and how adults can intervene effectively. The adults use empathy to help Neeley understand the reasons for her bad behavior and how she can get her wish to feel big and important in less hurtful ways. An important book in helping young children develop empathy in order to prevent bullying.
