Will You Be My Friend?

Molly Potter knows how to talk to kids about hard social stuff without being preachy, and this one tackles making friends, handling exclusion, and what actually helps versus hurts, with a genuinely useful parent-and-carer guide tucked in the back. It's part of her well-regarded Let's Talk series, so there's real track record behind it. A solid pick if you want a conversation-starter as much as a bedtime story.
