Description
Those long summer days and weekends spent with our best friends can be among the happiest memories of childhood. But the art of making friends isn't a skill that is taught in most schools. Teaching children how to be good friends and cultivate healthy friendships is the work of parents, teachers, coaches, ministers, and caring adults. In
How to Be a Friend: A Book about Friendship ... Just for Me!, author, Molly Wigand, introduces children to those values that make for good friendships-loyalty, trust, and honesty-and to how they can become a good friend to others.
