Abstract:

This book talk is based on the book Pinky and Rex and the Bully. In the story, Pinky is teased because his favorite color is pink and his best friend is a girl. Pinky has to decide whether he will stay true to himself, his best friend and his favorite color. The book provides an opportunity to explore name-calling and put-downs at a developmentally appropriate level. In addition to providing an anti-bullying message the lesson helps build confidence for students to remain true to who they are.
