Taste of Friendship

Reach for this book when your child is struggling with the concept of sharing or finding it difficult to play collaboratively with others. It is an ideal choice for the toddler or preschooler who views their belongings with a sense of protective ownership, helping them transition toward the understanding that social connection is more rewarding than material possession. The story follows a dragon who discovers that a solitary treat is never as delicious as a meal shared with a friend. Through its gentle fantasy setting, the book explores themes of empathy, manners, and the joy of hospitality. It is perfectly calibrated for children ages 3 to 7, using the universal language of food to model positive social behavior. Parents will appreciate how it moves beyond 'fairness' to focus on the emotional warmth and happiness that comes from making someone else feel welcome.
