James
S. Martinez has written a delightful book, The
Dinosaur’s New Shoes, which will instill compassion, friendship and how to
confront a bully into your discussions with your children. The rhyming lyrics are accompanied by vivid,
colorful illustrations by the very talented Timothy T. Civick. The dinosaur theme they use is perfect, since
all children love dinosaurs. I think
Teddy will become a household favorite children will love to emulate. This book needs a very special place in your
child’s library.
In Mr. Martinez’s story, Teddy is on his way to the first day of school. He is excited to be able to show his new shoes to his friends. They are very excited for him. Then they meet a new boy who has old shoes. The new boy is teased by Bruno the Bully.
Teddy confronts Bruno:
“Teddy told Bruno,
“Being a bully is not cool.
You made him feel bad,
And made him cry, that was cruel!””
You will love reading this book to your children as Mr. Martinez tells how to handle a bully. It will help you discuss how to handle a bully with your child and it shows the way to become friends with someone who has been hurt by a bully.
The author provides lists to help recognize bullies and who might be bullied. He also offers a list of sites where you and your children can learn more about bullying.
