MOBBING NO

Annika Thor. Truth or Consequences

18.12.2015

A bold book for teenagers about things that are completely unromantic and shameful — about how the fear of ridicule from her classmates and the fear of losing her “social status” and becoming an outcast in her class pushes 12-year-old Nora to meanness. Annika Thor accurately recreates the model of the school world (there are “popular” girls and boys in the center, “satellites” revolve around them, outcasts live on the outskirts who are so pleasant to poison with the whole class) and comes to the point of view of Nora, one of the “satellites” who desperately wants to be in the “popular” circle that she loses her intelligence, honor and conscience. Reading is uncomfortable (especially since everyone looked like Nora at some point in their life), but it's impossible to quit. And when the fall reaches a critical depth, Nora finally gets a hold of something and begins her journey upstairs.

Guus Keier, The Book of All Things
Marina Melnikova's review of the “Samokat” book “The Book of All Things” by Guus Kuyer (2018) It's a very very cool book; I can't even call it a children's book. Not so long ago, I realized that the division into children's and non-children's books is somehow wrong. Good books, films, and plays range from a certain age to a hundred years, or longer, whoever gets lucky. I've seen such people more and more often lately: Miss Charity, The Jellyfish Report, Alice in Wonderland translated by Yevgeny Klyuev, Waffle Heart, and even The Fox and the Bunny. So, of course, I had seen such books before, but I didn't understand it, I thought they stayed when I was a child, books that I had once read a hundred times...

Anti-mobbing list of children's and teenage books (updated March 1, 2021)
We continue to compile a list of children's and teenage books that are directly or indirectly related to the topic of school/teenage mobbing/bullying. I am sharing with you an updated list, which includes new books from 2019-2020. Children often don't pay attention to bullying and bullying at school because they are their age rotting a weak/other/stranger is considered the norm. Books and films on this topic can help children open up, let adults know that the problem exists. Read these books with your children, watch their reactions discuss and tell us what mobbing/bullying is. I'm sure these books should be included in extracurricular reading lists, and maybe in a circle school reading, as many of them have already become world and Russian classics literature.

Being an outcast at school is very hard. Moreover, it is at school age that you most want to be part of something big, a member of a big group, a team... to feel that “together you are strong!”. But not everyone can be part of this team.
