"I expected more from this book---I really like Michael Thompson, but this seemed to ordinary to me... Maybe it is from a lifetime of teaching kids, but I felt like he gave me no new insight. Still, it was an okay book for it's purpose."

"Before you send your child to school, please read this book. I wish my parents had read it. It helped me come to terms with and understand a little bit better the cruelty I experienced and sometimes participated in during elementary school. It is not only informative about many aspects of children's social worlds and group dynamics, but also provides helpful suggestions of things you can do to help your child navigate that difficult landscape."
