Tina Levine earned a master's degree in regular and special education and taught for twenty-five years in public schools. She is the proud mother of three amazing, successful men and married to Ned Levine, the illustrator of this book. Her love for the physical and mental benefits of yoga led her to become a certified yoga instructor, which has influenced all aspects of her life. Tina's affinity for writing goes back to her childhood. She and her dad wrote poetry to each other even into their adult lives. Their writing relationship and deep love for her dad, continues to inspire her to write from her heart and soul. Whether it is poetry, fiction, or even non- fiction, she creates pros inspiring the reader to be the best version of themselves. She still recalls from childhood, the pain of being called four eyes and, at times, socially excluded. That's when Tina became consciously aware of bullying for the very first time. As a classroom teacher for twenty-five years, she has observed children and adults bullied. All of these experiences have inspired her book, "Better Than A Bully: Carrot Top's Surprise and Better Than A Bully: J.J.'s Friendships & Secrets."
