Norbert is a “namuh” and enjoys eating everything with jelly beans on it! One day, Norbert’s teacher challenges his class to try something new. In order to encourage everyone to participate, the teacher continues to sweeten the pot. But when Norbert is less than eager to try the new food, he experiences first-hand what it’s like to be on the receiving end of peer pressure. Norbert’s imaginative descriptions of how it feels to have your peer pressure gauge continue to rise will draw readers in, while they witness his internal deliberation as he tries to let his inner voice shine! Award-winning author Julia Cook offers a vividly insightful look into peer pressure. Peer Pressure Gauge is the fourth installment of the popular Building Relationships series. Rampant with humor and creativity, coupled with vibrant illustrations by Anita Dufalla, teachers, parents, and kids alike will enjoy this imaginative story of how rising peer pressure feels, as they learn the skills necessary to triumph over this difficult issue.
