🌟 Fix It With Friends: Brave Enough to Try Again

Real kindness isn’t a checkbox—it’s a choice.

Book 2 of a 3 Book Series: Fix It With Friends: A Kindness Book for Kids

When Parkside Elementary launches a school-wide Kindness Challenge, it sounds simple: do the task, check the box, earn the badge.


But for Sophie Bennett and the Friendship Fixers, kindness isn’t about points or prizes—it’s about what you do when it’s hard.

From awkward compliments to lunchtime loyalty tests and anonymous notes that hurt, the Fixers quickly realize that kindness can be messy, brave, and real. So they decide to rewrite the rules—taking kindness off the clipboard and into everyday life.

Join five big-hearted friends as they tackle real-world friendship dilemmas, learning that empathy, honesty, and second chances are what make teamwork truly shine.
