TJ Zaps the Freeze Out: Stopping the Silent Treatment — Lisa Mullarkey

Every seven minutes a child is bullied in a school setting in the United States--more than 5 million K-8th grade students are affected by bullying. So, it's no surprise when TJ Trapper becomes a victim. TJ's dad is a school counselor, and he knows a few tips for stopping bullies. With his dad's help, TJ Trapper becomes a bully zapper! He's on a mission to rid his school of bullying behaviors.

TJ's fourth grade class hasn't had any luck convincing Ms. Perry to let them have a pet. But somehow, Livvy changed her mind! Livvy gets to pick the pet and she's decided on a goldfish--AGAIN! Ethan's tired of being a bottom-feeder and decides to get the entire class to freeze Livvy out. Although TJ doesn't want a fish either, he knows it's not right to ignore Livvy. But if he talks to her, the class will freeze him out, too. Is it time for TJ Trapper to zap the bully out of his best friend?
