Practical—and fun—tips for starting and growing friendships.

Life is better with a friend. That’s true for everyone. Some kids have lots of friends. Others have a few. Either way is great! Make a Friend, Be a Friend helps young readers find ways to—you guessed it!—make friends and be a better friend.
 
That doesn’t mean making and being friends is a snap. Even though it’s natural, it doesn’t always feel that way. The ideas in this book can help. Children learn:

• how to find and make friends
• ways to show you want to be a friend
• how to be a good friend
• what to do when times get tough

A special feature, What Would You Do? A Story Starring YOU, invites readers to practice making friends and solving friendship problems. Includes a glossary of terms at the back of the book to equip and empower children with the vocabulary they need.
