1-3Fix-It Friends series.
Illustrated by
Tracy Dockray.
"The Fix-It Friends," a group that works together to help their peers solve problems, forms in Fear; they help a friend learn lines for a play (Show), another friend to stand up when teased (Sticks), and one of their own to process losing a pet (Wish). Narrated by spunky seven-year-old Veronica and emotively illustrated, these kid-empowering books' lessons go down easily. Back matter includes resources for dealing with each story's concern. Review covers these Fix-It Friends titles: Have No Fear!, The Show Must Go On, Sticks and Stones, and Wish You Were Here.
