The Ant Bully

My first grade class in Texas loved The Ant Bully so much when I read it aloud in class. Our favorite part was when Sid the neighboorhood bully was skrunken by the ants at the end. We thought Sid would have to work like an ant. We would recommend this book to all the first grade classes around the world.

The book came on time in great quality. It was wrapped securely and undamaged.

I cannot say enough wonderful things about this book. As a student teacher I used this book for a conflict resolution lesson with fourth grade students. They were captivated, enchanted and unable to sit still as we read the story . The Ant Bully is the story of a child who-picked on by the neighborhood bully, in turn picks on ants. The ants decide they have had enough and shrink Lucas down to their size. Lucas learns a lesson, and so do the children. The Ant Bully teaches a wonderful lesson about looking at things from someone else's perspective. It also provides an ending that gives the perfect opportunity for a writing topic. My students could not wait to write their own version of what happens between Sid and Lucas. I recommend this book for any age group- its lesson is that important, and it is that enjoyable a read!

I loved this book so much when my teacher read it, I had to buy my own copy. I'm a senior in college and I thought it was so cute. It also had a good moral...Be kind to everyone because you never know when you may need them on your side!

John Nickle's incredible artistic talents are demonstrated in both The Ant Bully and Things That Are Most In The World. His unique style of focal points and colorations has my children looking at them over and over. I look forward to John Nickle's next book.
