Synopsis
Children today face many challenges, both at home and in school. Now more than ever, it is important for a child to learn how to relate well to others. Learning basic skills such as self-respect, getting along with others, and keeping out of danger will help a child face these challenges and feel good about himself or herself. The Violence Prevention Library talks about these issues in a sensitive and understanding way. Each book emphasizes both personal responsibility and the availability of people within every child's community who are there to help.
This important book reassures students that it's OK to need help, and that it is important to ask for it. Laying out specific scenarios in which a child may feel frustrated or confused about where to go for help, this book offers examples and suggestions that will help a child who is feeling isolated or frightened.
