THE AUTHOR

Natalia Siam, a vibrant 16 year old currently studying in Sydney, Australia shares her terrifying encounter with a bully and explains how to deal with bullying at school. 


Natalia wrote Bully Ben at the age of eleven, whilst in a wheelchair recovering from her bullying experience in Dubai.


“Bullying is a big problem in schools” Natalia says.“It can make kids feel hurt, sick, lonely, embarrassed, sad and scared to go back to school the next day. Bullies might hit, kick, push, call you names, threaten, tease or intimidate. A bully might say mean things about someone, grab your stuff, make fun of you or leave you out of the group on purpose. Some bullies force kids to do things they don't want to do. I hope Bully Ben will inspire parents and kids to put an end to bullying in schools.”
