![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() I enjoyed reading this contemporary YA adventure and I recommend it to young adults everywhere, especially if there is a diabetic person in the family. With family relationships to the fore and both good and bad examples, we can learn a lot to help us decide how to live our lives. Meanwhile the toughest guy in class turns out to have diabetes, which he manages well with regular blood tests and injections, when he's not hitting back at the bullies. The teachers insist that this is a zero tolerance school, but they do nothing about the fact that a girl had her violin's neck broken, and two kids are demanding money from everyone else. The first was a criticism to my view that using role play to teach the victims to learn how to behave differently, is victim blaming. During the launch, two issues were raised that I’d like to respond to. ![]() Can they resist their hunger until it's over, or should they partake of the soup and multigrain bread, like their dad, even if they'd rather eat something more interesting?Īt school, the problem of a lunchbox of fruit pales to insignificance beside the spread of bullying. Two sixteen-year-olds experience war at their school (In the Real World), an eleven-year-old makes a stand against bullying (Soup and Bread), and a fourteen-year-old discovers that climate change is not the end of the world (Lohland). In this post and I apologize for its length I want to return to the psychology behind Soup and Bread. Daily fare centered mostly around bread, cheese and the evening soup. Two lively girls find that their mother has gone on a healthy eating kick. and certainly no fellowship between the two trades, none whatsoever. ![]()
