Reviews

“Managing bullies is almost a guarantee with school-aged children, and this book helps children identify the right steps to seeking help and setting limits! Staying true to yourself, setting limits, and seeking help is often not taught by parents or educators, and this book will help guide children in managing complex problems appropriately. As a therapist in my 30s, some of these points were great reminders for difficult people I have come across!”
―Brie Turns, PhD, LMFT, author of I Will Always Love You

“Christina Furnival and Katie Dwyer are a dynamic team, creating a beautiful children’s book about healthy boundaries and negotiating friendships. This wonderful resource allows parents and teachers to work with their children about setting limits and kindly living within them. A fantastic read for any classroom!”
―Lisa Baylis, educator and author of Self-Compassion for Educators

“The Not-So-Friendly Friend helps children deal with the unavoidable times when a peer isn’t treating them as they should. It is important to give kids skills and tools to stand up to bullying at an early age.”
―Justin W. Patchin, PhD, co-author of Bullying Beyond the Schoolyard
