About this ebook

This is a short story about social bullying. Although the main character is a first grader, the story itself targets older children. I wrote this story as part of a bully-proofing curriculum for my sixth-grade students. It would, however, be appropriate for high school students, too. The story is true. Included with the story are thought provoking written response questions that can be used as-is in your classroom or altered to fit your specific need.

Again, this is a serious and perhaps slightly disturbing story about social bullying. It illustrates that not all bullying is intentional, and that social ostracism can sometimes be more damaging than a physical assault.

Generally, I write suspense/thrillers, so this story is very different from my usual genre. If you would like to use this story in your classroom, you could easily display it using your classroom computer. If you would rather, I would be happy to send you the word file so that you could more easily print it and the written response questions for your students.

Sean Dexter

Here's my story... Former military, process server, private investigator, and teacher. I live in the hills of Colorado with my wife, sons, a ferocious dog, and the gentle spirit of her predecessor. I am still grieving the death of Robert B. Parker and his wonderful creations who seem more real to me than many actual human beings. It has been difficult to get my mind around the death of not only Parker himself, but the passing of Spenser, Susan, Jesse, Hawk, and all the others who have been part of my life for so many years...peace, Robert B. I can still hear your typewriter clacking away... Another of my favorite writers is Max Allan Collins. His Nathan Heller books are the best in the genre. The amount of research that man does for his books is, well... frightening. That's all I have to say about myself for now. Peace, sd
