Max Parker notices everything—and he used to point it all out. But when his honesty starts pushing people away, Max begins a journey that changes everything.

Inspired by the timeless principles of How to Win Friends and Influence People by Dale Carnegie, The Friend Maker brings friendship lessons to life through the eyes of Max, a curious, imperfect, and relatable kid learning how to build real connections. From hallway slip-ups and group projects to school bake sales and quiet moments of listening, each chapter teaches a powerful people skill—without ever feeling like a lecture.

Perfect for readers ages 8–12, this heartwarming and funny chapter book shows how \"little lessons today\" can create a \"big impact tomorrow.\" With built-in discussion guides and writing prompts, it's ideal for classrooms, book clubs, and families.

Key Themes:

Kindness over criticism

The power of appreciation

Listening and empathy

Respecting others' perspectives

Leadership through encouragement

Whether your child is outgoing or reserved, The Friend Maker offers tools they can use to make better friends—and be a better one, too.
