Book Reviews of Telling Isn't Tattling

Book Review: "Telling Isn't Tattling" is awesome!
Summary: 5 Stars

I find that a number adults, too, are confused about what is telling and what is tattling. When this occurs, adults will tell kids to stop tattling when they are in fact telling. As a result, kids become very confused and may not tell adults when they are being bullied, etc.

Supervision aides, student supporter workers, teachers, administrators, children and parents would benefit from understanding the difference between telling and tattling. "Telling Isn't Tattling" by Kathryn M. Hammerseng is a gem. I found it very helpful and definitely prefer it over a picture story book titled, "Don't Squeal Unless It's a Big Deal."

"Telling Isn't Tattling" is an awesome paper back book. It has 13 short vignettes dealing with situations at home, school and the community that encourages the reader to prompt students/children to determine if the individual in the story is telling or tattling.

"Children tattle when they want to:
- get someone in troubble
- look good in someone else's eyes
- get attention
- have an adult solve their problem

Children are telling when they:
- want protection for themselves or someone else
- want protection for their own or someone else's property
- are scared
- are in danger"
