highly recommended

Written and illustrated by the creators of the popular Dino Life Guides for Families, this book uses precise language and humorous illustrations to offer specific ways to be a friend and specific ways not to be one.A special section on how to deal with bosses and bullies has valuable information for young children going forth in the world and encountering these situations for the first time.

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.

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.

How to be a Friend

This was a great book for my son! He is a first grader who is just learning the "rules" of friendship. He enjoyed the fun charecters and witty text so much that he didn't realize he was learning. Nonetheless, he incorporated the lessons the next day and told me of his success on the playground. He was proud of himself and I am proud of him. I am very glad I got this book. I can also readily use it with the children I treat in the schools and highly recommend it whether your child is "typically developing" or not!

Great book for kids with Autism

This has been great not only for my child with Autism, but the one without as well. Nice, simple format. Short phrases to go along with the pictures. I highly recommend this one!

Fun and a great teaching tool

How to be a friend is such a nice book. It is like an instruction manual for kids who have difficulties making friends. It shows what is acceptable and what others find attractive in a friend. It tells directly what is annoying or inappropriate. I read this to my entire class, which consists of general education students and children on the autism spectrum (Asberger). I used it early in the year. It opened to door to much discussion and questions. We used it in therapy sessions, as well. I recommend it..
