It didn’t just teach my child how to cope with setbacks, but also helped us both focus on building resilience and emotional strength. Chapter 4 was equally helpful, offering tips for maintaining long-term friendships and creative prompts to spark new social ideas. It’s clear that this guide isn’t just about making friends—it’s about emotional growth, empathy, and teaching kids skills that will benefit them for years to come. ❤️ The best part is how easy it is to implement the strategies into daily life.
