Everybody needs friends
This book helps readers define all sorts of friendships and offers tips for getting and keeping pals. Some of the most important relationships in our lives are with our friends . . . so why does friendship have to be so difficult sometimes? Is it better to have one best friend, or is there safety in numbers? What do you do if your friend turns his or her back on you? And can boys and girls really be "just friends"? "Friends Forever?" helps teens get to the bottom of these questions and more while helping them understand another key friendship: the one they are trying to have with themselves.
