Synopsis

The inspiration of Friend Maker came about from a question answered by my five-year-old grandson, Parker. I asked him what was the most fun thing he liked to do on the playground. I was thinking the slide or maybe the playhouse. But to my surprise he answered, I like to make friends with kids I don't know. The impact of his answer struck me like a rock. I started thinking of how important it was to have friends at a young age and the difficulty it takes for kids to break the ice to get to know one another. Too often, children make wrong decisions about others carrying out inappropriate actions. Prejudices, different lifestyles, and wrong impressions about cultures and ethnic backgrounds can be misunderstood. This book contains seventy-five illustrations with two hundred fun questions. It will give two individuals a fun, fast shortcut to get to know one another instantly, creating lasting friendships. I recommend this book for teachers, counselors, church groups where children are not familiar with others, travel time, reunions, family gatherings, and as a deterrent from Tv and video games. It's a simple book designed for making friends with the Inklings.
