Books with title The Bully

Bullying is observed in all species unfortunately, many humans have perfected it as an art form. My intent is to prevent this type of aggressive intimidation as well as transform those who have been labeled a "Bully." There is hope. This book is written for anyone who has ever been bullied. Perhaps it may have been in school or on a playground, or in your neighborhood. It may have been through phone texting or emails. Yes, bullies come in all sizes and all ages. I've seen bullying behavior in preschool as well as elementary, and high schools. College is no exception nor is the work place. I also dedicate this book to anyone who has ever been labeled a "Bully." Yes, you read this correctly. Bullies are people too. I have discovered that they are natural leaders in need of structure, direction, and a healthy dose of self-confidence. This book provides the reader with the tools necessary to prevent bullying as well as reverse bullying behavior. Ten simple rules are designed to help any classroom, youth group, or organization to approach this sensitive topic. Why hummingbirds? Well that's easy. Hummingbirds are most definitely bullies. They are territorial, they fight with other's of their own species, and they can be mean when it comes to food sources. They are amazing to watch. While protecting their food supply, they dive bomb the others often bending their long and fragile beaks rendering them defenseless. Despite a large number of hummingbird feeders strategically placed in my yard, one very aggressive male became the main character of this story; "Billy the Bully."

Billy was the new kid at Bookman Elementary School. He was a bully and he wanted all the kids to know it. Billy looked like a bully. He walked around the school with a mean look on his face and clenched fists. He was always ready to fight. Everyone knew he was a troublemaker and usually stayed out of his way except Patrick. He seemed to run into Billy all the time, through no fault of his own. Billy picked on Patrick and all the kids laughed. Patrick didn't find it very funny. As a matter of fact, he was about to put a stop to this.

The Bully Boys tells the story of fourteen-year-old Thomas Roberts, who finds himself looking after the family farm when his father goes off to fight for the British army during the War of 1812. When Thomas inadvertently stumbles upon some American soldiers who are attempting to rob a local store, his quick thinking and bravery save the day. His actions catch the eye of the war's most famous officer - Lieutenant James FitzGibbon, leader of the unit dubbed the Green Tigers or "Bully Boys." Tommy realizes that this is his chance to escape the drudgery of the farm and join the 'real' men who are fighting for freedom. FitzGibbon does take Tommy under his wing for a time, and the young man soon finds that war is both more fascinating and more horrifying than he could ever have imagined. Based on true events surrounding the legendary James FitzGibbon and The Battle of Beaver Dam, The Bully Boys is at once a spellbinding adventure story and a moving account of a young man's experience of war.

The War of 1812 is raging: America has declared war on Britain, and American troops have invaded Canada.

His bravery in thwarting the robbery attracts the attention of Lieutenant James FitzGibbon, and Tom soon finds himself fighting for his country alongside FitzGibbon and his notorious band of soldiers... the Bully Boys.
