Multiple best friends


Circle of Three: Enough Friendship to Go Around?
By Elizabeth Brokamp


The main characters in this story are Kate, Lindsey, and Bella, and they are all best friends. Throughout the story the three friends deal with jealously, feeling left out, their own problems, having to choose one friend over the other, and new friends coming into their circle. The girls go through all of these things, but also make amends, find solutions and become better friends by the end. This book is a good novel for elementary children to read because it would help them understand some of the feelings they may be experiencing. As children grow up they may grow a part, be in different classes, or make new friends. This story would enhance a child’s emotional intelligence by allowing them to see how to deal with sharing friendships, and gaining new friends too.
