    About this ebook

    Bullying can ruin people's lives, and in some extreme cases, lead to self-harming, suicide, and even murder. This book brings together some of the most profoundly moving stories of people whose lives were on the brink of ruin but who fought back against all odds and beat their bullies. For some, the bullying went on for years; for others it was less frequent. One thing they all have in common is their determination and courage to stand up to their tormentors. Challenging, powerful, and inspiring, Beating the Bullies celebrates the victims and their fighting spirit.
