This was a book I saw at a show and just fell in love with it immediately. What MAKES a real friend? How can I BE a real friend? These are concepts that little kids (AND adults) struggle with every day.
How many times have we, as parents, witnessed our kids being hurt by another child that they called friend? How many times have we witnessed our own child telling their friend "I'm not your friend"?
This book helps explain what being a real friend entails. Someone who is there to help. Someone who tells us the truth when others laugh. Someone who holds us when we need it and who lets us go when we need it. Aren't these the truths we want our child to learn? AND practice?
This is a Kane/Miller book from Germany. Be sure and point out to your child that this is a book from another country and that kids there are just like us.
