The Bully BookBy Eric Kahn GaleReview by Dylan McCarrickThis book is about a boy in the sixth grade named Eric Haskins. He is known and the Grunt. The Grunt is someone who is bullied a lot. And it is all controlled by The Bully Book. If you get the Book in your hands, then you will rule the school. Eric has gone through a lot of bullying and in this book, he has a journal that he wrote about this sixth garde year.I recommend this book because Eric really tells you how to rule the school and what he experienced. Fourth-grader Eric is excited for his 6th grade year. Finally he will be top of the school. Or so he thinks. Soon after school begins be begins to notice that Donovan, who used to be a friend, won't speak to him, is hanging out with the jerks. Then Melody, his best friend, is acting strange, too. Then Eric realizes something really is going on when his Facebook account is hacked and Melody is embarrassed by something "he" posts.Eric begins to hear whispers about a "book." Could it be that all of this awfulness is really stemming from a book that teaches that years' selected 3 how to choose and treat "a grunt"?Useful resources on bullying included.
What do You think about The Bully Book (2012)?
Wow...so disturbingly sad. The ending was hopeful.
