Children’s / Teenage personal & social topics: friends & friendship issues

Lilac Peabody and Honeysuckle Hope

The fourth book in this series for younger readers sparkles like its star, Lilac Peabody. As small, quick and shimmery as a dragonfly, Lilac is a friend indeed to all children in need – empowering them to solve their own problems and then disappearing as soon as she is no longer required.

SUGAR AND SPICE

The latest fabulous story by Jean Ure, a must for any girl’s collection! At Parkfield High no one would have thought nerdy Ruth and super-cool Shayanne would be friends – but maybe there’s more to Shayanne than meets the eye.

Big Mouth and Ugly Girl

Hard-hitting, page-turning and celebratory of friendship in unlikely circumstances, Joyce Carol Oates’ sure touch with small town life hits home in her first young adult novel.
