“New Friend – True Friend”, written for children age 3-8, teaches a lesson in trust, kindness, and hope while showing concern for others and how important a promise kept can be to a child. It also shows that new friends need not be just like you. They can be black or white, red or yellow… or maybe even green!
Feeling betrayed can also be a part of a new friendship before we truly get to know someone. But that feeling can be turned around when our new friend keeps their promises and a spirit of kindness and understanding grows between them. Friendships can develop quickly and unravel just as quickly. Follow Dominic Dragon and Jason as their friendship takes flight, quickly plummets, and soars again when Dominic keeps his promise.
Talented freelance illustrator Debbie Henke has brought Dominic and Jason to life through her brilliant interpretations of the characters, colorful and delightful imagery, and her devotion to bringing to life the characters and spirit I imagined for my poem when I dreamed of one day turning it into a children’s picture book.
