 ABOUT THE BOOK  

Billy is Nasty to Ant is the third book in author James Minter's "Billy Book" series and looks at the jealousy.

When Ant wins a school prize Billy can't stop himself from saying horrible things.  He is envious and wishes that he were the winner rather than being pleased for Ant. 

Jealously is based upon wanting something for ourselves that someone else has.  As children, we learn by making comparisons with others.  Jealousy usually involves another person.  Seeing them with what we want and do not have can lead us to harm and bring unhappiness to the other person at whatever cost.  These emotions can also generate feelings of guilt and shame, as we know deep down that we are actually harming the other person. 

In this story, Billy thinks that he deserves the most attentioon and a prize because he believes that he is the best student.  When Ant receives both, he begins to feel jealous.  It isn't fair and he's afraid that he will lose his popularity as Ant becomes the centre of attention.  As things progress, he blames Ant for how he is feeling and wants to get his own back.
