Best Friends for Frances

This sweet, thoughtful book about exclusion, hurt feelings, siblings and how to be a good friend, opens with Frances telling her little sister, Gloria, that she’s too little to play with. Frances gets a taste of her own medicine, when her friend Albert tells Frances she can’t play with him. As the story unfolds, Gloria helps Frances and Albert to understand how to be a good friend – that discussion, compromise and being considerate can lead to better friendships – and that friendships aren’t just for ‘when there are goodies in the hamper time’ but for always, and that they can all be friends.
