Aija Mayrock has landed a deal with Scholastic to publish a revised edition of The Survival Guide to Bullying: written by a kid for a kid.
Mayrock (pictured, via) had originally self-published the title as an eBook back in September 2014. The newly revised book will come out in digital and paperback formats in July 2015. A hardcover library edition will be released in September 2015.
Here’s more from the press release: “Written by a teenager who was bullied throughout middle school and high school, The Survival Guide to Bullying offers a fresh and relatable perspective on bullying. Along the way, author Aija Mayrock offers guidance as well as different strategies that helped her survive even the toughest of days. The Survival Guide to Bullying covers everything from cyber bullying to how to deal with fear and how to attain the self-confidence to achieve the life the reader dreams of having—from inspiring “roems” (rap poems), survival tips, personal stories, and quick quizzes. The updated Scholastic edition also features new, never-before-seen content, including an epilogue and an exclusive Q&A with the author.”
