Friendship stories at five are the first time a child recognises their own life on the page — best friends, first fallouts, the kindness of sharing. This shelf is built for that: short, warm stories about the people your child is just beginning to choose for themselves. Each one hand-picked by Hannah, a former English teacher.
37 friendship books for 5-year-olds
