Howard B. Wigglebottom Learns about Bullies is a cute story about being bullied and what you should do if you are bullied or if you see someone else who is. The pictures are bold and the characters are well chosen.
Wigglebottom is a perfect name for this wiggly exuberant rabbit. Nicely illustrated by: Susan F. Cornelison
The best part of the book to me (besides the message for children) is the tips for teachers and other grown ups that offered safe ways to encourage children to report bullies. I think children know bullying should be reported, but they are scared to do so. This book is a wonderful way to help children and adults both do what they should do about bullies.
I enjoyed this book and would recommend it to every parent and teacher. The additional 2 pages at the end, were a wonderful bonus. With suggestions for how to help a child stay safe and report bullies. Howard Binkow’s website at www.wedolisten.com is fantastic. Check it out and I am sure you will agree!

Yay, another Howard B. Wigglebottom book! This looks to be a terrific series. Thanks for highlighting it on this blog.
This book has excellent reviews. I’d love to read it!
I was so intrigued by the Howard B. Wigglebottom series, it led me to check out the We Do Listen Foundation. The showcasing of this book on your website encourages the need for children to feel good about themselves. This is definitely a must read and give book. I love the book trailers on your site. I will be visiting here often.
This book looks so fun! What are the chances of me winning two weeks in a row?
I love how this book is trying to help kids understand the difference between the things they can change and those they can’t. Parents need help remembering this difference, too, so I can imagine this book being a wonderful read-aloud story.
