Julia Cook is a former teacher and school counsellor who has written more than a dozen books on behaviour and health for children.

"Another helpful booklet for children published by Boys Town Press.
In their series "Building Relationships," there is this
presentation of teasing vs. bullying. This current ongoing practice
in schools and outside of schools, in neighborhoods, and everywhere
else is a harmful, distracting, and annoying practice. This helpful
booklet gives important and pertinent information regarding this
common occurrence. We are all different and others must understand
and regard that aspect of our existence. Using dramatic text and
bold illustrations, these points are made for a young person to
understand. Recommended reading for children and adults to review."

"I have incorporated many of Julia's books into my curriculum and
must say Tease Monster is a powerful relationship-building tool.
Children will quickly learn the power of words, how people hear
things in different ways, and the importance of laughing with
someone not at them. Tease Monster should certainly find its way
onto your bookshelf if you're a parent, school counselor, teacher,
social worker, psychologist, or pediatrician." - Erin E. Bowden,
M.S. Elementary School Counselor
"When One-of-a-Kind got laughed at by Purple for being weird and
Green playfully calls One a klutz after tripping on the stairs, is
the Tease Monster to blame? With words of wisdom from Mom about the
Tease Monster, One discovers that teasing is part of life. And not
all teasing is the same. One learns that laughing at someone (mean
teasing) has a hurtful bite, but laughing with someone is alright
when it's not done out of spite." - Ashley Bobst, blogger
