The Empathy Challenge

• Girls who used online media heavily had fewer good feelings about their friendships than other girls their age.

• Face to face contact was the only mode of communication associated with health emotional relationships.

—Clifford Nass

How Stories Build Empathy

• Identifying with characters who are different.

• Asking “why” questions.

Teen Fiction

SideStreets are edgy, fast-paced novels that combine

real-world themes and believable characters to

make for short, heart-stopping books — sure to

engage the most reluctant reader.

The Bully

“The story’s anti-bullying message is well integrated into

the plot, and Cody’s gritty past is honestly portrayed.”

— The Horn Book Guide

“Girl Fight is a worthwhile read. In the end, there isn’t

some grand revelation, but that’s perfect because…

that’s not how “real life” is. This is the type of book that

grade schools should make students read in order to get

a clue about the bullying and violence. If I ever become

a teacher, I will seriously demand that my students read

this, think about it, and learn from it.”

— A Teen Reader

The Bullied

“Scab is more than a book about one 17-year-old. Julian

is representative of the bullied child, the loner, the

outcast and the social misfit.”

— CM Magazine

“The real epicentre of McPhee’s talents is his

remarkable ability to describe physical pain… every

moment of Callum’s painful encounters is palpable and

raw.”

— CM Magazine
