Dear Reader,
Thousands of girls have sent us letters about their friends.
We’ve read how great it is to have a good friend and to be
one, too. Many letters, though, are about friendship troubles,
and girls ask: What do I do when friendship hurts?
In this book we’ve tried to answer your questions. Inside
you’ll find advice for solving your friendship problems. Tips
and quizzes will help you get to know your friends—and
yourself—a little bit better. Plus, you’ll meet girls who’ve
gone through serious friendship troubles and learn how
they survived.
Every girl has what it takes to be a great friend and to
choose friends who are right for her. We hope this book
helps you do just that.
Your friends at American Girl
