Buddy the Teddy and the Buddy Bench

Today is Buddy the Teddy’s first day of school. He has everything he needs—pencils, crayons and his two good friends, Sunny and Joe. But Buddy soon learns that not everyone has what he has-a good friend! When his teacher explains what a “Buddy Bench” is for, Buddy the Teddy is ready to be a good friend to someone who is feeling left out and alone.

This wonderfully illustrated and beautifully written story by Jill Cook will inspire children to be the first to the Buddy Bench to make a new friend. Buddy the Teddy and the Buddy Bench is a must-read!

What a great story. It is so relatable, as we do have a Buddy Bench at our school! I love that this story encourages the idea of inclusion. It is the very same message that we teach our students. Everyone really DOES need a friend! Thank you for allowing me to read another one of your stories; you have such a gift!
