00:00Hi everyone welcome out to a book reading. Today's book that I'm going to
00:12read to y'all and it's called Bully Beans and it's written by Julia Cook
00:26illustrated by Tammy Lyon. Anyway here's what it looks like
00:34here's the front here's the side and here's the back
00:56Me and Maxine was a bully. She made sure all the kids at school knew she was the
01:23boss. She tell us what to do and we do it. She tell us where to go and we go there.
01:42She tell us what to say and we say it. If we didn't do exactly what Maxine told us
01:51to she look at us with her mean eyes. Do what I say or I'll twist you into a
01:58human pretzel. We thought about what it would feel like to be twisted into a
02:05human pretzel and it scared us a lot. So we decided it would be easier to let
02:14Maxine be the boss. Maxine likes to pick on kids especially Winston. Winston is the
02:32smartest kid in our whole school. Maxine made him do all of her homework and give
02:39her all of his lunch money. Maxine likes to make Winston cry then she call him a
02:45crybaby. If you don't do exactly what I tell you to I'll knock you into next
02:54week. Nobody likes the way Maxine treated Winston but we were too afraid to do
03:02anything about it. Maxine didn't have any real friends but she didn't know that. We
03:11pretended to like her so she wouldn't show us her mean eyes. Last week Maxine
03:18asked me to go to her house to play. I didn't want to go but I was too scared
03:24to say no. As soon as we got to Maxine's house her big brother Larry started to
03:43bully her. He told her what to do and she did it. He told her where to go and she
03:50went there. He told her what to say and she said it. Maybe that's why Maxine is
03:59so mean. Larry made Maxine cry and then he called her a crybaby. If you don't do
04:08my homework tonight I'm going to twist you into a human pretzel. I don't ever
04:15have time to do my own homework that's why I made Winston do it for me she told
04:21me later. Now I understand where she got her attitude from from her brother. When
04:40I got home I told my mom all about Maxine. I told her how mean she is to us
04:48and how mean her brother Larry is to her. I fed that hard for Maxine but it
04:56doesn't give her an excuse to be mean to others. Sound like you might need some
05:01bully beans. Bully beans? What are bully beans? Bully beans are magic jelly beans
05:08that help remind kids they have the power to stop bullies. The beans in bully
05:15bean stands for bullies everywhere are now stopped. If you want to stop bullies
05:23you can't just stand by and watch. You need to take away their power. To do that
05:31you have to work together. Never hang out on the playground by yourself. Always
05:38stay with your friends and group. Maxine might be able to bully one of you but
05:46she can't bully all of you at once.
06:01When Maxine pick on Winston where do you and your friends stand? Right next to
06:08Maxine. Why? Because we don't want her to use her mean eyes on us. Next time we'll
06:16tell everyone to stand next to Winston and look Maxine right in the eyes. That
06:21sounds scary. It won't be as long as you eat a bully bean before you do it.
06:28Another way to take away Maxine's power is to stay away from her. Maxine can't
06:35bully you if she can't communicate with you. If she stares at you with her mean
06:41eyes don't look at her. If she tries to come close to your group ignore her and
06:51walk away. What if that doesn't work? Tell everyone in your group to turn and
06:59face Maxine. Have them stand up straight and tall and look right at her. Use your
07:09loud voice and tell her to back off. Say it so loud the entire school can hear
07:17you even the people in the back. That sounds really scary. It won't be as long
07:26as you eat a bully bean before you do it.
07:31Chances are if you say it loud enough a teacher will hear you and come to see if
07:48you need help. Mom why don't teachers stop kids who are
07:53bullying? They do stop it when they see it happen but most bullies are smart and
08:00don't get caught. It's always a good idea to tell a grown-up when you see bullying.
08:06If you don't want to tell them in person leave a note and don't sign your name.
08:12Finally you need to remember that Maxine may be a bully on the outside but on the
08:18inside she's just a kid like you. If she ever decides to stop being a bully maybe
08:26you can give her a chance to become one of your real friends. I couldn't believe
08:33the words I was hearing. Me and Maxine friends? Never!
08:50The next day I passed out bully beans to my friends and told them everything my
08:56mom had said. We all agreed to give bully beans a try. Just before the bell
09:05rang that morning Maxine headed straight for Winston. Give me my homework geek!
09:12Everyone ate a bully bean then we all crowded around Winston. Winston closed
09:18his eyes and swallowed his bean. No! He squeaked back softly. What did you just say to me?
09:35Winston looked right at Maxine's bean eye and all and said no Maxine do your own
09:44homework. Maxine couldn't believe her ears. Her mean eyes got meaner than I
09:53ever seen them before. She was just about to grab Winston by the collar when our
09:59teacher came to the door to get us.
10:11During class that morning Maxine tried glaring at Winston but he wouldn't look
10:17at her. He just sat in his seat smiling eating bully beans. I bet he ate about 20
10:23of them. When recess finally came everyone ate another bully bean and
10:29headed out the door. Winston was the first one outside. Maxine tried to chase
10:36him down. Hey doofus get over here now! Winston popped another bully bean in
10:53his mouth and we all walked away pretending not to hear Maxine. Stop right
10:59now Winston or I'll... We all stopped, turned around, stood up as tall as we
11:06could and stared right into Maxine's mean eyes. Then I let her have it. Back off
11:14Maxine! Stop telling us what to do! We are sick and tired of your mean eyes and
11:21your even meaner awful dress and most of all we are sick and tired of you!
11:28Maxine took a step toward me. Back off and leave us alone! Our recess teacher
11:46heard me yell and came running over. Is everything okay? she asked. I looked Maxine
11:55in the eyes but this time instead of having mean eyes our eyes were scared. Her
12:00face turned white. She was in shock. Everything is fine I said. Maxine looked
12:07up at our teacher and nodded in agreement. Then she turned around slowly
12:12and walked away. When I got home I told my mom what had happened at school. Bully
12:30beans really are magic aren't they? Not exactly they're just regular old jelly
12:35beans but they did help you find the courage to stand up to a bully. After
12:42that day me and Maxine wasn't so mean. She stopped telling us what to do and
12:47where to go and what to say. She stopped looking at us with her mean eyes and she
12:53hasn't threatened any of us since.
13:04Today Maxine hung out with our group for the very first time. She was nice to
13:11everyone even Winston. I don't think she will ever become one of my real friends
13:17but at least things are better than they used to be.
13:20Winston told Maxine all about the bully beans. He even gave her a few of them so
13:26she could try them out with her brother. I think I'm going to need more probably
13:41about 20. Being bullied or being a bully. Below are expected tips for children who
13:50are being bullied. Those witnessing bullying and those who may be acting as a bully. I'm
13:57being bullied. I get teased, laughed at, pushed around, intimidated, and talked about in mean
14:06ways. Being bullied makes it hard to feel good about myself. I need to realize I am
14:14worthy of being treated with respect. Pick my battles the first time I am bullied if
14:22it's not a big deal. I should ignore it so the bully doesn't get the reaction they
14:27are hoping for. Tell the bully in a firm voice, please stop bugging me if it happened more
14:35than once. Tell a trusting adult if the bullying continues. If I don't feel comfortable talking
14:42to an adult, I can write them a note explaining the situation. Tell a trusting adult right
14:49away if I am ever threatened. Remember reporting is not tattling. I see someone else being
14:59bullied. I see kids bully other kids and I don't like it at all. I don't have the courage,
15:05strength, or popularity to stop it. So I stand by and say nothing even though I want to.
15:12I need to tell an adult when I see an unsafe situation and remember reporting is never
15:19tattling. Stand next to the target, not the bully.
15:25Surround myself with other bystanders then speak out to offer support for the target.
15:31There is strength in numbers. Demonstrate disapproval of the bully's action and not
15:37join in by laughing, teasing, or spreading rumors about the person being bullied. So
15:44support those being bullied with kind words and action. People being bullied need good
15:51friends to stand by them. Power to the survivors. I might be a bully. I often make others feel
15:59upset, scared, and or ashamed on purpose. I don't want to be a bully. I don't want to
16:08be a bully. I often make others feel upset, scared, and or ashamed on purpose. I do this
16:16because I'm angry or so I can feel better about myself. I need to remember that everyone is
16:23different and that's okay. We all have strengths and weaknesses.
16:28Treat others the way I want it to be treated. Try to see the person through the eyes of the
16:35person I am picking on. Find a safe person to talk to who can help me find a positive way
16:43to express myself and channel my emotions. Recognize that everyone wants to be accepted
16:49and feel like they belong. Avoid putting others down. Every person has unique gifts and abilities.
16:58Realizing that bullying can really hurt people. It can cause a lifetime of anxiety,
17:04depression, and overall sense of worthlessness.
17:09Understand that bullying is against the law and breaking a law has consequences.
17:17And the end.
17:24Bullying is a must for counselors, teachers, and administrators. Only Julia Cook can write a book
17:36that will help students recognize bullying behavior and teach them to meet the bully head
17:43on in a civil manner, all while steering feelings of empathy. This book should be in need of
