Book Description
for Sammy and Goliath by Sandy Kegel and John Konecny
From the Publisher
There were some things Sammy was good at, but other things he couldn't do well at all. One boy let him know it-every day. Goliath picked on Sammy until he didn't show up at school anymore.
This book reveals the critical problem of bullying in our schools today, complete with a discussion guide at the end. Whether you're a parent or a teacher, Sammy's story brings a real scenario to life as you work together with these kids to problem-solve the circumstances surrounding bullying to become a change agent.
If students can be educated in the elementary grades on the topic of bullying, they will be much more equipped to handle the same pressures at a high school level and beyond.
