(The Hero Book Series(TM) - First Steps Library Ages 3-8)
Bennett is back-and this time, he's learning that kindness is the greatest superpower of all.
When a shy new classmate sits alone, Bennett does something simple but brave.
He smiles and says, "Come play with me."
That small moment sparks a new friendship-and shows young readers that being a hero isn't about size or strength. It's about empathy, inclusion, and having the courage to reach out.
Written in gentle rhyming verse and paired with warm, expressive illustrations, A Hero's First Friend helps children understand the power of kindness and the importance of welcoming others.
