In this companion to best-selling titles A Family Is a Family Is a Family and A Kid Is a Kid Is a Kid, a child explores how to make a friend.
When a child arrives at summer camp, they see a lot of other kids. Will any of them want to be their friend?
One by one, the kids share their thoughts on friendship. One child makes friends by asking questions, while another says you can be friends even if you don’t speak the same language! Listening to each other’s stories, liking the same things and showing kindness are among the many ways of being a friend. And in the end — whoever you are — the best way to make a friend is to be one!
Author Sara O’Leary and illustrator Qin Leng have created a delightful, heartfelt, inclusive book about making and being a friend — the final title in the Who We Are trilogy.
