    The Last Bully—Hugo the Happy Starfish

    Written by Suzy Liebermann

    Ages: 4-9 | 32 Pages

    Publisher: Happy Language Kids LLC; 2nd edition (May 18, 2015) | ISBN-13: 978-1935997528

    What to Expect: Ocean Animals, Respect, and Bullying

    Hugo is a little starfish and so it’s not surprising that in this story he comes across several bigger fish in the ocean. Sadly, they are bigger fish with the wrong attitudes – they are bullies! After seeing his friend getting bullied, Hugo decides enough is enough. He forms the Anti-Bully Club and teaches the bullies a valuable lesson about respect. By working together as a group, Hugo and his friends manage to show the bullies that there is always a bigger fish in the sea and that happiness comes from respecting others not bullying them. THE LAST BULLY is great tale to teach a lesson about one of the biggest issues around. This book is a great way to teach RESPECT. To learn more, visit: www.MyStarfish.org
