| Publisher Description: All I Want is a Friend is a lively story about an energetic boy, Jimmy, who has challenges with personal space awareness, empathy and anger management. Many children will identify with the strong emotions Jimmy experiences in social situations where his goal of making and keeping friends repeatedly falls apart. Jimmy finds solace one day in a conversation with a teacher who guides Jimmy through understanding coping skills to address his challenges. Armed with new knowledge, Jimmy applies these new concepts with his peers and finds success in his ability to make and keep friends, along with an increase in his self-esteem. Told through Jimmy's voice, children with similar issues may have their perspective and experience validated and not feel alone in their struggles. This action packed, emotionally descriptive story holds the attention of children from beginning to end. |
