Young Author Aija Mayrock: Stop the Bullying

Something About Bullying: Pay It Forward with Aija Mayrock
This morning a young woman's voice broke through with a message about bullying. Aija Mayrock has appeared as a guest and written articles on the subject because Aija Mayrock became the target of bullies when she was only eight years old. This continued until she finally got help at fifteen. She didn't tell anyone, not even her parents, that she endured name-calling, physical confrontations, and cyber bullying.

Watch Aija tell her story in this YouTube video and discover what to do if you are being bullied.

Have you been bullied or are you being bullied? Tell your parents, your teacher, someone you trust. Don't suffer alone like Aija did. 



Aija wants to stop bullying so she wrote The Survival Guide to Bullying

From Amazon-"Written by a teenager who was bullied throughout middle school and high school, this kid-friendly book offers a fresh and relatable perspective on bullying. Along the way, the author offers guidance as well as different strategies that helped her get through even the toughest of days."

See if your teacher or school library has a copy for you. To learn more about the e-book and/or to purchase, click the book cover below.

Plenty of clues to tell you this is one mighty adventure.

How did the Legacy of Azaria transform into the world fear it has, the unicorns barely existing hidden in the depths of the forest? Why is Icharus, the Great Stallion, so cruel and ruthless? And who is Jaresh, the invisible being who takes away their powers? Angry, the young colt Ulysees and his friend Téo rebel, following an abandoned trail where they’re discovered by humans. Now the entire herd must make an exodus. But Ulysees discovers there’s more danger then just humans when he meets a giant creature who warns them of impending doom…
