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.

Dear parents! I would like to introduce you to Samokat's wonderful graphic book “The Volcano That Was Angry” (2020). The author of the text and drawings is Natalya Baiduzha, a designer and illustrator from Siberia. Age marking 0-3.4-6. I am very closely researching new children's books that raise the topic of aggression and bullying. And not all books appeal to me, and I don't want to talk about them all. But I immediately became interested in Vulcan, although it is for children of an age I don't work with. I looked at it carefully several times and figured out how parents or caregivers could “work” with her.

The authors of the book “The Art of Retreating. How it helps in life, love and work” Peg Streep and Alan Bernstein (Minsk: Potpourri, 2014, translated from English by Yu.I. Gerasimchik) defy conventional stereotypes that make us fight to the bitter end and never give up. The authors argue that the ability to abandon the goal in time and leave is as valuable as dedication and perseverance. Using examples, they show how people who abandoned their goals in time, stopped trying to prove something, freed themselves from “tunnel vision” and gave up their fanatical dedication to the goal and perseverance in achieving it achieved success in life. When we stop fighting, we overload our minds and minds, give ourselves a break and are able to formulate new goals. Failure, followed by quitting and losing, often paralyzes us. Unable to give up their usual behavior — breaking into closed gates — people often find themselves in a vicious circle. They are accompanied by failures and disappointments. And, as a result, self-esteem falls and depression occurs. <br>

Writer Daria Dotsuk shared with our website her story about child bullying, in which the story is told on behalf of a young persecutor.

Jerry Reno, 14, did nothing but say no sell chocolates, which all students traditionally sold schools. But this is how the real war began.

I suggest considering Maya Ganina's children's novel “Tyapkin and Lyosha” as a “prequel” to Lyudmila Petrushevskaya's novel “Time is Night” or a “prequel” to our current life and some of the peculiarities of our “interpersonal communication”.

Dear teachers, we offer you a methodological development for the novel “Brown Morning” by French writer Frank Pavloff. This master class on creating a museum of residence was created by T.A. Bulavina, a literature teacher and school principal in Svobodny, Sverdlovsk Region, and N.I. Zakharova, a literature teacher.

The scientist draws very interesting analogies between the behavior of different vertebrate species and Homo sapiens behavior, which is why the book was published in the “Library of Foreign Psychology” series. Claiming that aggressiveness is an innate, instinctively determined property all higher animals, and proving this with plenty of convincing examples, the author comes to the conclusion: “There are good reasons to consider intraspecific aggression is the most serious danger facing humanity in modern conditions of cultural, historical and technical development.”
