Friendship is important--and life would be so dull without it Friendships are essential for social-emotional learning and mental health, but sometimes children struggle with making and keeping friendships. In The Friendship Guide, child psychologist Jillian Roberts outlines central ideas on how to be the best friend you can be.

With this book, readers will have a comforting and straightforward resource to help guide them toward a lifetime of beautiful friendships.
