Bullying is not new, but it is becoming a bigger problem and its backlash is much harsher than ever before. This can no longer be ignored, or simply swept under the rug. This book addresses bullying, drug dependency and the experts’ analysis of these issues. This author is no expert, but you don't need to be an expert in order to understand the major impact bullying has had on our children. These are not traditional views and do not live up to traditional standards. This thought-provoking series might just answer the questions we have all been asking, yet no one has honestly answered. “Our Voices Series” highlights out-of-the-box ideas that are different from societal norms which are not working. These are thought-provoking with a refreshing look at persistent problems. From the Authors: If you have any interest in things other than people’s stories, complaints & drama and feel that there is something else out there, you’re right, there is. And that’s where we are. Social media, television, movies, other self-help books are unfulfilling. They just perpetuate an empty feeling. If you are interested in what everyone else is doing, keep supporting them. Yet, if you are interested in accessing something else within yourself and all around you, our books help to open the door to magic, science, creativity, & psychic ability. We work with energy. What does that mean? Everyone wants to talk to us or be in our conversations. So, we wrote about what we know and have experienced. If you want to be in our conversations, listen to our free podcasts. Otherwise, read our books, that’s where the energy is. Find our books on our Amazon Author pages.

Inside the mind of a Schizophrenic Scouser This book tackles the stigmas surrounding mental illness with raw honesty and dark humour. From straitjackets to fearmongering, from serial killers to the boardroom, the protagonist navigates life under the constant weight of being watched – a prisoner in her own mind. But when does psychosis become a threat to those who don’t understand it? For her, it’s not the voices in her head that are most frightening, but the people around her. With humour and small victories, she learns to cope in a world that often feels scarier than her own thoughts.

Luisa is repeatedly teased and called "weird" by her classmate Sam, even though she is simply being herself—laughing with her friends, answering questions in class, greeting her father in Spanish, and wearing her favorite polka-dot boots. Luisa initially reacts to the bullying by withdrawing and hiding her colorful nature. But with the support of her teachers, parents, classmates, and one special friend named Jayla, she is able to reclaim her color and resist Sam’s put-downs. The Weird! Series These three books tell the story of an ongoing case of bullying from three third graders’ perspectives. Luisa describes being targeted by bullying in Weird! Jayla shares her experience as a bystander to bullying in Dare! And in Tough!, Sam speaks from the point of view of someone initiating bullying. Kids will easily relate to Luisa, Jayla, and Sam, as each girl has her own unique experience, eventually learning how to face her challenges with the help of friends, peers, and caring adults.
