The Bully’s Bullies by Donna Eget and JC Bessoir is a social issues story. Ben is really excited. He’s about to start seventh grade and it’s his turn to host CHiPS (Child Prodigy Service) at his home. On his first day at home, he goes to the candy store and runs into the school bully, Kevin Kincaid. Not content with getting at Ben, Kevin goes on to bully others, stealing homework and money from smaller kids, and causing destruction of property. CHiPS decide it's time to give him a taste of his own medicine and they begin with a series of sneaky attacks. They change the lock on his school locker, fill his backpack with nasty slimy vomit, and put some itching powder into his football uniform. Everything is going well until Kevin cottons on and confronts a CHiPS member, testing just how loyal and strong they are to the cause. Is bullying the way to go or is there something, or someone, who is much smarter than even the worst bully in the world?

The Bully’s Bullies by Donna Eget and JC Bessoir is a book that all children and teenagers should read; in fact, it should be put on the school reading list. It contains a lot of life lessons about bullying and how wrong it is, and with bullying being a strong subject right now, this is an ideal book. Perhaps kids shouldn’t take quite the same course of action to deal with it, but the book does show that bullying is not to be tolerated and should be dealt with somehow. I loved the way it was written, easy to read in simple language. It had a good storyline and is a book that all kids should read, be it at school or home with their parents.
