How does it work?

The Not-So-Friendly Friend helps children—and their parents—navigate one of the hardest parts of growing up: dealing with unkind friends. Through a warm, rhyming story and beautiful illustrations, it gently teaches kids how to recognize when someone isn’t treating them well, and how to set healthy boundaries with confidence and kindness.
Instead of feeling hurt or confused, children learn to speak up, protect their feelings, and choose real friends who make them feel valued.
It’s more than just a story — it’s a tool for emotional strength, social confidence, and lifelong self-respect.
