About this eBook

What happens when a good kid gets harassed by a bully and caught in a cycle of lies trying to protect himself? After-school fights, bullying at the ballpark, a visit to the nurse, and clean up duty at the zoo! Caught in a Cycle shows how even one lie can spiral into a dangerous path of more until it gets out of control.

JJ struggles to make good choices while trying to protect his friends from a bully.

• Is it ok to tell a little lie to avoid another problem?

• Is it ok to cover one lie with more lies to avoid a bully?

• What do you do if a bully harasses you or your friend?

• What about those who can’t defend themselves?

JJ knows right from wrong, but sometimes it’s tough when you face difficult choices.

JJ learns valuable lessons as he defends the defenseless and tackles truth head-on.
