Terrence Tullgren tells the fresh and inspiring story of a shy young boy who learns an empowering secret for making new friends by watching the community behavior of deer in the woods near his new home. To make friends, Donnie sees that he must make eye contact and show the deer a happy, welcoming face. Donnie's new observation helps him overcome his habit of avoiding eye contact and the deer responds in kind. Donnie gains the confidence to approach a boy his age with the same warm, smiling face and a new bond of friendship begins. The book provides a simple way for any child to understand that eye contact is a basic skill of human communication. The story is beautifully told, in words any child can easily relate to and understand. The pencil-line, retro illustrations by Charles Gibson hearken back to a time of old fashioned values as they skillfully complement the text and reinforce this important lesson. The cover intentionally features black and white images so that the reader has no preconceived notion of how to color within, therefore fostering each child's innate creativity and imagination. The result is a must-own book for any child. Tullgren weaves a story both touching and impactful for young hearts and minds. Donnie Learns How to Make Friends is the first book in the Donnie Learns series on values for young people.
