Customer Reviews

Excellent resource for teachers

Weakfish is an enlightening story about a boy who has been bullied througout his school career. The author provides insight into why the bullying occurred and provides excellent information and resources to help teachers, administrators and parents prevent bullying in their own communities. A must read.

This is a wonderful book!

This is a wonderful book. I have read it myself and I have used it to teach a unit on bullying to a high school class.

An Excellent Message

Today I heard Michael Dorn speak as part of our "beginning of the year" inservice. I am a second grade teacher and was profoundly affected by Michael's message. He has helped me remember the powerful influence and presence I have in my students' lives. As a parent, his message has helped me question and be very connected in my own kids' lives and education. He is an excellent speaker and writer. I highly recommend this book to all people who influence children in any way. It is an eye-opener and a wonderful reminder of how precious and beautiful our children are.

A "Must-Read" for Teachers, Parents, etc!

I have not yet read the book, (working on that!) but I have met Mr. Dorn in person after hearing a lecture he gave to my school. His lecture and books are a must for all involved in educating students today! He explains adults what to look for when finding those students "slipping through the cracks."
