The Bully
The little girl stood in the corner of the playground, with the lion beside her. “Why don’t
we play like the others?” the lion asked. The little girl said, “I don’t like playing because some
of the big boys are so big and rough. They knock you over.” The lion growled. “They wouldn’t
knock ME over,” he said. All the boys were running towards the little girl.
“Go away,” said the lion.
“I won’t,” said Jack Tall.
The little girl got behind the lion. The lion began to swish his tail. Jack Tall was running
closer and closer. The lion growled. Then Jack Tall saw the lion’s teeth. He stopped running.
He stood still. He stared.
The lion opened his mouth wider. Jack Tall went pale.

Then the lion roared.
He roared and he ROARED and he ROARED.
All the children stopped playing and put their fingers in their ears. And the
biggest boy, Jack Tall, turned round and ran and ran – out through the playground
– out through the school gates – along the streets. He never stopped running
until he got home to his mother.

Valuing
Listen carefully as your teacher will read this paragraph about bullying.
What is bullying?
Bullying involves intentional and repeated actions and words designed to intimidate
or hurt another person. There is usually an imbalance of power, either physical or
psychological, between the perpetrator and his or her victim. If a child is on the receiving
end of taunts and name-calling by any persons regularly, then that is considered bullying.
Physical aggression, social alienation, verbal aggression, and intimidation are the four main
categories of bullying.
