When my daughter went to a friend’s birthday party and ended up spending the time there playing with the family dog, I knew she needed a little guidance in how to interact with her friends better. I struggled with how to teach her this as I was never good at making friends in school. I thought this book might help. Not only did it help her, it ended up helping me as well! The book gives real life examples of how to get your child involved with other children, which approaches work better, and even dealing with the not so nice children at school. If you and/or your child have plenty of friends already, this book may be just “common sense” to you and does not apply. However, if you’ve been struggling, like me, to help your child make and keep friends, I found it very useful. Even my hubby has gotten on board with the advice in this book and is teaching our children how to be “good sports”.
