Free to Be Cover

Free to Be takes you on a compelling adventure through the untold stories of people who have suffered at the hand of bullying.

This book is a compassionate and timely look into the hidden corners of every victim’s heart. It not only exposes the wounds that, even years later, often remain, but also shows the cure waiting at the heart of not only the victim, but the child bullying as well. Providing hope and encouragement to the readers, Free to Be is teeming with tools and tips on how to help young people who are experiencing bullying. A powerful reminder of the fact that, we are all Free to Be who we really want to be, this is surely a book that can help every family and school on the planet!
