How to Make and Keep Friends: Helping Your Child Achieve Social Success is the how-to manual for parents of children with social challenges and is the 2nd in the series of books authored by social-emotional learning experts, Nadine Briggs and Donna Shea. The co-authors of the How to Make and Keep Friends book series have more than 30 years of combined experience in social coaching children.

The easy-to-read format of their book outlines the common barriers that hinder friendships. It provides actionable tips for overcoming those obstacles and includes suggested language for parents to use to provide support to their kids during social interactions. We cover topics that include:

  • Overly silly behavior;
