Toggy's Friendship Dream

Reach for this book when your child comes home feeling rejected by peers or if you have noticed they struggle to understand how their own words might be pushing potential friends away. Toggy's Friendship Dream follows a lonely tortoise on a quest for companionship, exploring the delicate social dance of joining a group and the unintended consequences of our behavior. It is a gentle but firm look at social dynamics that helps children bridge the gap between their desire for connection and their outward actions. Through the rhyming narrative, parents can help children age 5 to 8 navigate the complexities of social etiquette and the importance of kindness in building lasting bonds. It is an ideal choice for fostering self-reflection and empathy in children who are just starting to manage more independent social lives at school.
