Inspired by the real-life adventures of four young girls, The Four Ever Friends: The Beginning, provides a humorous story that takes a timely topic-isolation-and shows how something positive can be achieved in the midst of a worldwide crisis. As they adjust to life during a global pandemic, Gracie, Lexie, Morgan, and Sophie must learn to balance social distancing and masking with fun and games. The first in a series, this book is a valuable tool for teachers and parents who want to help children understand that it is possible to strengthen friendships, and even have fun, during difficult times.
