Brief summary (a short paragraph is sufficient): A raccoon girl starts a new year at school where a bully starts to tease her. She tries to deal with it with help from her brother and sister, but doesn't want to talk to her parents or teacher. Eventually she does and her brother gives her the idea to start a club where everyone is welcome, but they don't tolerate bullying. It is a very prosocial solution to dealing with teasing and bullying.
Activity: Have the child role-play with dolls or action figures a situation in which a bully is teasing others. Help the child think of prosocial reactions for the other dolls to react. What would they say if they were starting a bully blockers club?
