Includes a Note to Parents, Caregivers, and Educators with more information about bossy behavior, and strategies to help guide children to behave assertively while still being mindful of others’ feelings.
Cake & I Scream! …being bossy isn’t sweet is part of the Books for Nourishing Friendships Series from Magination Press. Other titles in the series include Mac & Geeeez! ...being real is what it's all about and Peanut Butter & Jellyous ...sometimes friendships get sticky.
From the Note to Parents, Caregivers, and Educators:
While it is normal for kids to exert their independence and will, that does not mean it’s okay to do so in ways that upset others. Bossiness is ordering others about in a domineering and oppressive manner. Bossy behaviors in children include: telling other kids what to do (e.g.,
where to sit, who to play with at recess), and what they are doing wrong; interrupting all the time; always needing to win at games; and having trouble waiting for their turn.
There are many reasons children exhibit bossy behavior, including but not limited to: seeking attention when not feeling heard or respected, testing the limits of their authority, having worries or frustrations that their own needs will not be met; expressing an insecurity or low self-esteem; wanting to express power and control (as someone who feels they have none); and a desire to express independence but in an immature manner.
Assertiveness, as opposed to bossiness, is being confident and forceful while still being mindful and sensitive of others. Similarly, being a leader is not about being controlling of others. Non-bossy assertive or leadership behavior is supportive, helps others find their strengths,
encourages problem-solving, promotes respect, and is considerate of the feelings of others. While there are gender differences in how we perceive the same behavior (i.e., girls can be accused of being bossy while boys are seen as leaders), bossy behavior in the context of friendships will surely be experienced by any child as very unpleasant regardless of gender.

Über die Autorinnen und Autoren:
Michael Genhart, PhD, is a licensed clinical psychologist in private practice in San Francisco and Mill Valley, California. He lives with his family in Marin County.
Steve Mack has been drawing for as long as he can remember. His first lessons in art were taught to him by watching his grandfather do paint-by-numbers at the summer cottage. Later, he took every drawing class he could find at the local community center and spent every hour of math class sharpening his drawing skills. After graduating from college as a Visual Communications know-it-all, he instead turned from graphic design back to his roots as an illustrator. Steve started freelancing in the year 2000 and has had a steady climb upwards since that time. Steve now lives and illustrates on a small farm with his wife and two young children.
