Teaching Bullies A Lesson With KIndness

Leticia Ordaz and her son Bronx Baeza are on #ReadingWithYourKids to celebrate their new children's book Super Peanut and the Big Bully. Bronx came up with the idea for the book when he was 5 years old after witnessing bullying in his school. The book tells the story of Super Peanut, who is Bronx, and his encounter with Grulow, a boy who is seen as a monster by the other kids due to his bullying behavior. With Super Peanut's help, Grulow discovers his kindness and turns back into a boy.  Leticia shared how proud she was of Bronx for sticking with writing the book for over 4 years. She supported Bronx throughout the process. They discussed the importance of addressing bullying and teaching kindness. Bronx was excited for the book's message to help other kids. Jed and Leticia emphasized the role bystanders can play in stopping bullying by speaking up. They hoped the book and Leticia's outreach efforts will inspire kindness among children and a movement of empowering kids to address bullying situations. Leticia is passionate about increasing access to books for underrepresented communities and inspiring young people to pursue their dreams, like Bronx did in writing his first book.
