COUNSELOR’S
CORNER This week’s Bucket Filler lesson is
Bully Beans by Julia Cook.
Bobbette is a mean bully, who
makes children do and say
anything she wants. Bobbette
tells the children she will twist them into human
pretzels if they do not do what she wants. When
this little girl talks to her mom about the bully
her mom gives her Bully Beans (jelly beans).
Bully beans are magic beans that make you
strong so you can stand up to bullies.
