"What's lovely about 'Bully' is that the little bull is a sympathetic character throughout. Having shown us the reason for his anger, Seeger offers children a way to root for him." --The New York Times "For a book containing only 18 words (22 if you count the duplicates), this title packs a punch, or perhaps a pat on the shoulder. Beginning with the stop-sign-red cover sporting an angry brown bull, author-illustrator Laura Vaccaro Seeger signals her intent to tackle an ugly subject, carefully calibrating it for the very youngest." --The Washington Post "Intelligently conceived and beautifully executed, this picture book is visually and verbally pared down to essentials, making it accessible to a wide age range. Yet for all its simplicity, this story opens up a number of complex issues for discussion." --Booklist, starred review "Seeger's pages pop with action, and the lesson couldn't be clearer." --Publishers Weekly, starred review
