Remember the childhood saying, “Sticks and stones may break my bones but names will never hurt me”? This isn’t always true! Mean words are the main tools of bullies. Words can hurt, often leaving long lasting emotional scars! This is exactly what happened to our hero, Sticky Stickerson, on his way home from school. Bully Bullerson, the notorious bully of Timberson City, targeted Sticky with a mean lie which Sticky fell victim to when he believed the bully’s words. Through a series of kerfuffles, conundrums, and extremely dreadful advice, Sticky struggles to find a way to fix the painful problem. But, ah-ha! Sticky, with his pal, Brainy Smarterson, the smartest kid in the world, and the added genius of Sticky’s pet, Chasie Stickerson, the smartest pooch in the world, work through Sticky’s dilemma. There is no question, you want to protect your child. If you know or suspect your child has been listening to a bully or mean person, then this book is definitely for you and your child.
