Overview

Middle school is the ultimate transitional time in a young person's life. Amidst all the other changes, one's friendships are also growing, evolving, expanding, and sometimes ending.

Readers learn to confront the end of friendships that no longer work with compassion and empathy. Full of useful strategies for spotting and dealing potentially toxic friendships, ""bad crowds,"" and bullies, this book provides all the tools a young person needs to surround him or herself with kind, dynamic, engaged, and mutually supportive and nurturing friends-for-life.
