This book as taught us a lot!

I bought a bunch of books for my 4 year old son when I learned he was teasing the other kids at his preschool. This was one of them. He loves this book, and I notice that he has gotten so much better playing with other children since we started reading this book.

It has been so effective that I simply say "Jimmy, is that how you be a good friend?" when I feel he is being unkind, and he will answer me, using "good friend" examples from the book, and immediately change his behavior. He also tells other children how they can be "good Friends" too.

Unfortunatley, as he nears the age of being a "tattle tale", he is very quick to point out when other children aren't being "good friends" and tells them "You need to read Mommy's book." LOL

I highly recommend to any parent.

GREAT!

Reinforces the criteria and requirements that kids need to know to be a "GOOD" friend in easy to understand examples.

How to Be a Friend

Great material for preschool and above ages. It has very real situations that I think children and adults can relate to and learn from.

Teach children who's a real friend, and who is not.

I bought this book for my son, so he could understand that his so call BEST FRIEND in School was really not being a friend, but a phony. He has now understand the difference, and though the other child is trying to convince him that they are BEST FRIENDS, and can grab the book and read it with him and say: Is your so call BEST FRIEND being this way with you? and he answers: NO, MOM. So, I say: then he's not your BEST FRIEND, he's what we call a classmate. It can get tricky, explaining to a child these differences, but the book definately helps. I highly recommended. Very age appropiate.
