Stand Strong - Nick Vujicic


This is a book about being bullied.  Specifically, what you can do about it.  In it, Nick Vujicic (born without arms or legs - a bully's dream!) gives you a blueprint for a "Bully Defense System" that you create yourself, by realizing who you are, how important you are, why bullies do what they do, etc.

Nick was bullied quite a bit in his growing up years, and still encounters it to some extent, today.  He is well equipped to share on the subject of bullying, and on how to overcome it.  He is a very interesting and captivating author.  This book seems geared towards kids, which is great.  One complaint I do have is that, since it is geared toward a younger audience, it seemed to be a really long book, with a fair amount of repetition.  Don't get me wrong, I think repetition is a good thing, and I would recommend reading the entire book, but I wonder if it would keep older children's attention the entire way through.  I definitely recommend this book as a resource for parents and teachers, as they help children deal with bullying.

I received this book for free from Blogging for Books in exchange for an honest review.
