Making friends isn't a personality. It's a skill - and your kid can learn it.If your child gets quiet in groups, eats lunch on the edges, or comes home from school deflated... they're not broken. They just haven't been taught the moves yet.The Friendship Guide for Kids follows Milo and Nia - two kids who start at a new school not knowing a soul - as they figure out, one small lesson at a time, how to turn strangers into real friends. By the end of the book, they're inseparable. And your kid has a quiet stack of moves they can use Monday morning. Inside the book - 10 short, story-driven lessons: - - How to start a conversation (without freezing) - - How to join a group already in motion - - What to actually say when you get left out - - How to ask better questions and really listen - - How to be funny without being mean - - How to repair a fight with one good sentence - - How to say no without losing the friend - - How to bounce back when it gets hard Every chapter is a story, not a lecture. Every chapter ends with one tiny "Try it this week" challenge - small enough to attempt at lunch tomorrow. Why parents love it: - - No homework for you. No worksheets, no reading aloud, no awkward "let's talk about feelings" sit-downs. Just hand them the book. - - Written for ages 10-14 in language tweens actually read. - - Real scripts, not vague advice. The exact words to say in the moments that feel impossible. - - 30 warm illustrations that make it feel like a story, not a textbook.
