It's time to start our discussion for the first part of May: BFF: Friendship in Children's and Young Adult Literature.
Friendship is an enduring theme in books for youth.From tales of kindred spirits (e.g., /Bridge to Terabithia/) to group dynamics (e.g., /Harry Potter/), the ins and outs, ups and downs of friendship have been richly explored. When it comes to realistic, memorable portrayals of friendship in books for children and teens, what titles stand out to you, and why?
