From the authors of Kar-Ben's award-winning Six Million Paper Clips: The Making of a Children's Holocaust Memorial, comes a book about teaching the lessons of tolerance gleaned from the Holocaust. In Bullies and the Three Monkeys, Peter W. Schroeder and Dagmar Schroeder-Hildebrand, searching for lessons to be learned from the Holocaust, discover the "Pyramid of Hate," in which seemingly small acts of intolerance, such as bullying, can mushroom into unspeakable tragedy. More than half of all children in North America have to endure emotional and physical violence. A lot of these victims, some as young as nine years, see only one way out, they commit suicide. The Schroeders have spent years talking to students, parents, educators, experts and government agencies mainly in the US and Canada, seeking answers to the following questions: 1) Why do bullies bully? 2) What does bullying do to victims, their families and society in general? 3) Is there any way to break the vicious cycle and instead practice tolerance and appreciate diversity? In this book, both the bullies and the bullied offer promising solutions.
