AlbakiReads Editorial

Two viewpoints on bullying and empathy

Ava and Sofia’s experience with bullying is presented twice: first through Sofia’s perspective, then through Ava’s. That paired structure gives the story a concrete way to explore how feelings and understanding can shift when children consider another person’s point of view. Discussion questions extend the story into conversation about the characters’ choices, while the illustrations accompany the narrative. The book connects empathy with bullying through a friendship-centered situation, keeping both the social conflict and the practice of perspective-taking in view.

Good fit for readers who enjoy

  • Children ages 5–7 beginning to explore empathy and perspective-taking
  • Families or educators seeking a storybook to prompt conversations about bullying
  • Young readers interested in friendship stories with discussion questions

Book overview

Two sides to every story--helping kids learn compassion and understanding

Teach children ages 5 to 7 about empathy and putting themselves in someone else's shoes. In this entry into bullying books for kids, they'll read about how best friends Ava and Sofia handle a problem with bullying.

The story is told twice--first from Sofia's point of view, and then from Ava's, so kids can experience how their feelings change when they see things from a different perspective.

When it comes to bullying books for kids, this one stands out:

  • Everyone deserves understanding--No matter how your child is experiencing bullying, Ava's and Sofia's stories will show them skills that can help.
  • Talk about it--Go beyond other bullying books for kids with discussion questions that encourage kids to think about why the characters might have done the things they did.
  • Beautiful illustrations--Colorful artwork brings the story to life and makes this book fun to read.

Give kids the tools to practice kindness with What is Empathy?, everything that bullying books for kids should be.
