Reviews

Each page and each theme will lend itself to discussions about what it means to be a friend and much, much more. * EYE *
This book is a manual of sorts, and would be a valuable addition to any bookshelf. It can be referred to as and when needed, empowering the child reader with a means to independently assess the friendships in their life, should they so wish. It's a keeper! * Little Parachutes *
Will You Be My Friend by Molly Potter is an accessible guide full of practical advice. Making and maintaining friendships is such an important skill for young children to learn. Sharing and talking about this book... seems like a good place to start. * The Publishers Association *
