What do the conditions mean?

Our conditions mean the following:

  • New - a brand new book
  • Almost New - appears new but is actually secondhand.
  • Very Good - only minor imperfections such as minor scuffs to edge or cover or a price written in pencil or shop sticker.
  • Standard Secondhand - Clearly been read before, but not too bad. We do not recommend these for gifting. Spines usually creased. Could also include creases or folds to cover, some writing such as in the cover or elsewhere, underlining or highlighting, but might not do. Possibly some stains or marks. Similar in general to books in any secondhand shop or charity shop.
  • Poor Condition - Usually this will have a specific problem such as writing inside, water damage, missing dust jacket, heavy staining, large creases or cuts. These are readable copies but not nice ones. On other websites this condition is called 'Acceptable' or 'Fair' , but we want to be more honest.

From the best-selling authors who wrote the book on friendship, here is their first book in the How to Make and Keep Friends series for children in grades 3-6. Social-emotional learning experts, Donna Shea and Nadine Briggs, have more than 30 years of combined experience in social coaching children. Their books teach children to use simple and proven strategies to increase social success.


How to Make & Keep Friends: Tips for Kids to Overcome 50 Common Social Challenges offers social skills advice presented in a reference guide format. The book contains sections and lists to quickly discover tips and strategies on a specific topic or social situation where help is needed.

While all children will benefit from the tips in the book, it has been especially beneficial to children with special needs that impact their socialization abilities. Included are simple to implement and immediately actionable tips to navigate everyday social situations that can be challenging or awkward for kids, such as:

  • Joining a group;
  • Conversation skills;
  • Handling strong emotions;
  • Dealing with rejection and being excluded;
  • Being a good playdate guest and host
  • Working things out & sharing;
  • Maintaining personal space;
  • Playground and recess success; and much more!

The book includes an explanation for kids of "why" of learning each of these skills is essential along with practice questions to inspire discussion and role-playing of different social situations.
