Calling All Parents & Kids Who Want to Put an End to Bullying.
Phoenix-Mesa, AZ (1888PressRelease) October 20, 2015 - Melinda Vail, author of If You Could See Inside of Me, is a therapist, mother and grandmother who cares about kids, especially those who get bullied by their peers.
In If You Could See Inside of Me, a book in verse with "doodles by McKennan Gillette," talks straight from the heart to every kid who knows what it feels like to be considered a misfit and to suffer the consequences. Bullying often leads indelible scars that travel into a person's adult life, haunting them thereafter, unless they're fortunate enough to find a therapist like Melinda who can help them release those "not good enough" feelings.
If You Could See Inside of Me, published by Dandelion Books, presents 10 typical misfits, including kids in wheelchairs, "nerds," wannabe cheerleaders, gays, dyslexics, kids of a different color/religion/background, kids with single parents, and kids whose parents can't afford to buy them smartphones or designer jeans.
Writes Melinda: "I have written this book as a labor of love for all kids who have ever suffered at the hands of a bully. As a parent I have witnessed bullying first-hand and now as a grandparent my six-year-old grandchild and his friends are wrestling with an older child who is calling them names and throwing sand at them.
"We have to teach our children to be better, to do better, and to accept diversity if we ever want to get out of the cycle of violence that is present in society today. I hope this little book might help a child with a different perspective and I pray that someday we can all be 'as one' as a human race."
Melinda Vail lives and works in Tempe, Arizona, where she maintains a successful practice as the leading intuitive therapist in the Southwest. She is also a certified hypnotherapist, lecturer, and author of The Other Side of the Vail, and Morning Musings by Melinda.
Melinda's additional certifications include: Three Stages of Healing, Victims of Sexual Trauma, and Advanced Training as a Childhood Trauma. Melinda has been a member of the National Association of Transpersonal Hypnotherapists since 1996 and is a member of the Arizona Society for Professional Hypnosis.
McKennan Gillette was born in upstate New York. Growing up, he experienced bullying first hand, as well as the damage it caused. He doodles in his spare time and was happy to be involved in a great opportunity to use his doodles to assist in the understanding of the nature of bullying.
