Book introduction
Highly recommended by 100 elementary school teachers, this book is a valuable resource for children who are struggling with conflicts in their friendships. Jo In-hwa, a teacher at Gajwa Elementary School, recommends it as a solution to the communication difficulties faced by children during the Corona 19 Pandemic.
An increasing number of children are having difficulty communicating, resulting in conflicts with their friends. They may become angry when a friend does something wrong or find it challenging to talk to a friend they want to be close to. This is due to a decrease in opportunities to socialize with friends. For children facing these big and small conflicts, this book offers valuable advice.
The book was pre-evaluated by 100 elementary school teachers and strongly recommended as “a book that cuts children’s worries in half” and “a book that is like a prescription to help with troubles.” It looks at the concerns of children who hurt each other because they are not good at expressing themselves and suggests ways to solve conflicts with friends independently.
The book offers relatable examples of children who have difficulties speaking, such as those who use the wrong words, get annoyed and angry before speaking, or are too timid to speak out. It guides readers towards using wise speaking methods to establish good relationships while also comforting the mind of a child who is embarrassed by a twisted relationship and responding to their concerns.
This book is a must-read for children struggling with friendship conflicts. It provides valuable insights and guidance on how to solve conflicts with friends on their own. Highly recommended by elementary school teachers, it is a book that can help cut children’s worries in half and serve as a prescription to help with troubles.

Cuando vi este libro al principio, dudé. No era un título llamativo para una charla entre niños que pueden parecer insuperables cuando surgen problemas en la escuela. Sin embargo, después de sumergirme en sus páginas me convencí por completo: se convierte no solo en un aliado didáctico esencial sino también en un verdadero compañero emocional para los pequeños lectores. Presenta escenarios realistas con las luchas cotidianas y ayuda a generar herramientas eficaces para comunicarse sin heridas ni resentimientos extraños y hacer amigos duraderos incluso tras el impacto social de lo sucedido durante la pandemia.

In un’epoca in cui i giovani lottano per riconnettersi a causa delle sfide sociali recenti, questo libro si distingue. Offre strategie pratiche che aiutano ogni bambino ad esprimere le proprie emozioni senza temere conflitti tra coetanei. Lo consiglio vivamente.
Aline Souza from São Paulo, Brazil –
I admit I approached this book with caution, assuming it was just another guide for dealing with childhood spats. However, as a parent in the vibrant streets of São Paulo observing my child’s interactions at school since they shifted back to face-to-face learning post-pandemic chaos, I quickly found value hidden within its pages. It cleverly offers tools tailored not only for resolution but also building connections amidst misunderstandings – concepts vital for today’s tech-driven youth grappling daily through muted conversations and screens. Its suggestions prompted heartfelt discussions between us about emotions we’ve never truly explored before together—a rewarding bonding experience indeed.

Navigating friendship turmoil isn’t easy, especially now. After diving into this guide with my younger brother in Mumbai, I felt him understanding the need for patience and empathy more profoundly. The insights shared provide not just lessons but tools that can lead to healthier relationships among children. No magic spells here; simply relatable stories! I wished we had something like it during our struggles as kids!
Freya Lindgren from Seattle, USA –
In an era where child interactions often resemble remote echoes more than lively dialogues, ‘Practice Speaking So That I Don’t Get Hurt and My Friends Don’t Get Hurt’ emerges as a lifeline for young communicators. This manual not only fosters dialogue skills amidst the emotional maelstrom stemming from isolation but also nurtures empathy, arming children with tools to negotiate their feelings within friendships shaped by digital screens rather than personal connections. Through storytelling filled with practical advice tailored to current sociocultural landscapes – such as when anxiety alters responses among peers – this book has made waves in Seattle’s educational corridors since its launch.

I got this book for my daughter. She found it helpful when talking with friends. It covers real situations kids face today. The stories are relatable and easy to understand, though a couple of pages were stuck together upon arrival.
