Book cover type
Lemma and her brother Lenny just started at a new school over a week ago, and Lemma still has no new friends, while Lenny has made three! Finally determined to make some new friends, Lemma gets to school and finds three girls to play with. Things go well for Lemma…until recess. When Lemma doesn’t want to wait her turn to play, the other girls tell her to play by herself. Now upset and alone again, Lemma turns to her brother for help, and learns a lesson in what it means to be friends. 

A Friend for Lemma is a valuable story for children of all ages to learn that being nice to others is the best way to begin forging new friendships.
