(Chicago, IL) March 11, 2013 – LaNiyah Bailey, the award winning 8-year-old author is proud to announce that she and her parents have written and put together a list of best and worst’s for parents and children to learn from. The list effectively outlines some of the best and worse courses of action that can be taken when bullying becomes an issue. The list can be used by parents and children to successfully combat and prevent bullying, without making many of the mistakes that people often do make when it comes to sensitivity and conflict.

Bully Busters Coming To Town.” Both of her books have received outstanding praise and testimonials from readers, as well as being featured on several media outlets and review sites.
