Amber Brown is Not a Crayon

Though not a TCK book, this is a great story for helping kids cope with friends moving away.  Third grade Amber’s best friend Justin Daniels is moving. They’ve always had each other to rely on (and Justin would never say something like “Amber Brown is a crayon”). As the reality of Justin’s move sets in, both struggle with their feelings.  After they have a fight and stop talking to each other, they need to resolve their conflict and share their feelings to manage the separation. Reading level: age 7-10 years
