Have you ever found yourself staring at someone in a store or restaurant who may act or look differently? We all have. Will You Be My Friend? walks us through what it's like living with a disability and trying to have real friends who will share their love, while disregarding any differences. Joey, my brother who has Down Syndrome, teaches us how to be a friend to someone who may have different challenges, and reminds us of all the joys that come with friendship. You and your child will share laughs and maybe even shed a tear. Best of all, the similarities with our own life experiences will remind us of how alike we all really are, regardless of how we look or act!
