Books About Friendship and Love

Books are always fun and special to read. My selected list of five books about friendship and love are:

Books about Friendship

“Not Norman“ by Kelly Bennet is a story about a little boy and his disappointing pet fish Norman. All great children’s books slip a lesson between the pages. This one is about how our first impressions aren’t always right. Friendships can take a while to grow but once they do they are solid. Even with a pet fish named Norman.

“Whoever You Are“ by Mem Fox gives me goosebumps and brought me to tears when I was a homesick Canadian teaching in St. Louis. The book is simple and talks about the differences of little children all over the world. But focuses on what they all have in common. There are beautiful illustrations that show children in all different cultures from around the globe with a sing-song story to carry you along.

“Corduroy” by Don Freeman is a children’s classic and one of my favorites from childhood. If you haven’t read it it’s about a little teddy bear and his desire for a real home away from the department store and a little girl who needs him too!

“Duck, Duck, Goose“ by Tad Hills is a story about friendship and what happens when a twosome adds another person (or duck) into the mix. The author brings these characters emotions to life and children will be able to relate to Gooses feelings for sure!

“My Friend Rabbit” by Eric Rohmann is a cute book with award-winning illustrations that follows a mouse and a rabbit who remain friends despite the rabbit’s uncanny ability to get into trouble. The little rabbit means well and his heart is true. The limited text and descriptive illustrations make this book great for a wide range of age groups and my son loved the Rhino!

Do you have any other books about friendship and love that you would add to this list?  Comment below or share on my Facebook page!
