About the Author
B01
From School Library Journal
Grade 7–9—This book is clearly designed to support homework assignments, and is a younger version of the title in the "Opposing Viewpoints" books for older readers. The series aims to "simplify for students the enormous and often overwhelming mass of material now available via print and electronic media," and to aid readers in developing critical-thinking skills through the concepts of opposing viewpoints. Topics covered in this book range from the causes of bullying, what role society plays in encouraging bullying, the roles of TV and/or video games in violence and bullying, the responsibility of parents, the value of anti-bullying programs, and the ways that the behavior can be reduced. Articles are presented in a pro/con format; "active reading" questions preface each viewpoint and are designed to help students focus on the main points and to read carefully. Full-color photos and other graphics appear throughout. It is unfortunate that the author did not delve more into the important role of the bystander in the bullying cycle, providing the opportunity for students to think about and discuss the responsibility of each individual to stand up and say "no" to injustice and bullies. Back matter includes interesting facts (like sound bites) that might be used in debates or essays.—Jennifer Ralston, Harford County Public Library, Belcamp, MD
