Marcia Staser has master's degrees in counseling and education and is licensed in teaching, school guidance counseling, and school services personnel. She is a Lilly Fellow and the author of "Art Talk," a counseling program integrating the development of social skills, anger management, and stress management with art. Working in schools with children of various ages for many years has proven to her that kids can learn skills to stop their own victimization. They can become courageous and take control of situations they never believed possible. A worthy goal for children of all ages is to develop competence, resilience, and confidence. This book supports the development of all three. Kids practice a simple formula to become competent in handling bullies. Learning resilience by "bouncing back" when other kids push sensitive emotional buttons or triggers is part of the practice, and confidence is forthcoming as the reader meets with success. Much of the information in the book was learned by observing kids who successfully coped with bullying and from practicing skills with children who were being bullied. Marcia lives in Evansville, Indiana, with her husband of many years. Their three sons helped her develop the formula for kids to use to stop bullying. They are now adults, and they know how to handle bullies. Their son, Karl, is the illustrator of Bullies Beware...Babaloo Bounces Back!
