Face 2 Face: Navigating Through Cyberbullying, Peer Abuse, and Bullying - Softcover

Face2Face is written and illustrated by kids and part of Reflections Publishing's "Kids Helping Kids Through Books" series. Face2Face specifically addresses the emotions that children experience from getting bullied, receiving peer abuse, or experiencing cyberbullying. The fiction stories in this series are written and illustrated from the fresh perspective of kids. With the stories written by child authors, child readers who are going through a difficult time can read these stories and have their feelings validated. By connecting with the children through a fiction story, it simply provides a start for the healing process. Because true healing requires a broad focus on emotional, educational, social, and even spiritual needs, this series also provides a non-fiction section for children (and parents) with the tools they need to navigate through these situations. Specifically, at the back of each book in this series, readers will find commentaries for dealing with difficult situations from experts in various fields (e.g., child psychologists, educators, therapists, and religious scholars). We believe this series will provide children with valuable tools to assist them in dealing with many real-life challenges. Description of Face2Face: Alice Smith is a normal seventh grade girl with a big problem: Brenda Johnson. Brenda and her sidekicks-Tess and Taylor-have made school a miserable place for Alice. Whether it's nasty teasing or full blown attacks, Alice lives in a state of constant humiliation. She dreads going to school, has many sleepless nights and, try as she might, Alice just can't seem to escape being the target of Brenda's aggression. But when Miss Krissa announces try-outs for the school's spring show, Alice is overjoyed. That is, of course, until Brenda gets involved. Join Alice as she navigates through the terrain of homework, bullying, and early adolescence. And maybe-with a little help from friends, teachers, and parents-she can come out the other side.
