Hank the Hangar: A children's book that teaches kids how to stop bullying

Kathryn Lynn Seifert reading 'Hank the Hangar'
Rebecca Thiele, WMUK

Kathryn Lynn Seifert wrote Hank the Hangar to teach kids who were being bullied how to stop the bullying.

Book cover for 'Hank the Hangar'

In Hank the Hangar, Hank is a wire hanger who gets teased by the other hangars because they don't think he can hold up a heavy winter coat. Throughout the course of the book, Hank tries to stop the bullying using six tips. Seifert took these tips from www.dontfeedthebully.com. Seifert and Kalamazoo author Janet Heller will host a discussion about bullying Friday at Kazoo Books.
