Description

The hardest part of making a new friend? Saying the first word. In Hello, Friend! Let's Chat, a young child discovers that the most powerful friendship tool in the world is also the simplest: a warm hello, a good question, and the courage to listen.

For ages 3-7, this is the book parents and teachers reach for every August when a new school year means new classrooms, new faces, and new chances to connect. Children who struggle to start conversations find a gentle guide here - and children who are naturally social find affirmation of the skills they already use.

School counselors and teachers love it for classroom discussions about empathy, kindness, and social confidence. Gift-givers will find it the perfect back-to-school companion - especially meaningful for a child entering a new school or making new friends for the first time.
