Marlene, Marlene, Queen of Mean von Jane Lynch
Marlene is the mean girl at school. When one of her classmates stands up to her she cries and as readers we realize that Marlene doesn't really want to be a mean girl. Many kids act out for attention and to feel heard and seen. I think this is a prime example of this and how we need to recognize this behavior so that we can amend it and find better ways to get attention. Overall, this book was somewhat simple and lacking in story, although I liked the message it was not very captivating.
Overall message about how being mean and bullying others isn't cool, and usually the bully is the most insecure person. But, in my opinion, there was no consequences for her actions, all he says is "you're just a bully" and that was enough to make her cry and change her ways. Something about that doesn't really seem like real life. I think in normal circumstances it takes a little more than that to learn a lesson.
Everyone at Marlene's school sees her as a bully. She pinches, kicks, and flicks. One day, a little boy named Freddy stood up to Marlene and made her realize that she was a bully. After that, Marlene began to be nice to the students at her school. This story has rhyming which may help grab the attention of younger children. This story conveys the message of bullying and how bullying can be a problem for children in school. It shows what bullying is like and that it only takes one person to make a change.… (mehr)
When I saw that Jane Lynch was the author of this children's book, I was very excited to read it. However, I was a little disappointed in the book. I found that it lacked the depth that I was searching for, but I found that it would suit a smaller age group. Marlene, the main character, constantly picks on her other classmates to the point where they openly call her a bully and express that they do not like her. Eventually, Marlene changes her behavior so that she can make friends with her classmates. Although the story had a happy ending, I found that calling Marlene a bully and excluding her from the class was just as bad. It doesn't necessarily send the best message to children, but I think there are ways it could be used in younger classrooms to highlight that bullying is wrong.… (mehr)
