When Amanda returns to school after having a sick day, she finds fitting back into the friendship group tricky. Amanda decides, with the help of the Dolphin Squad, to go out of their way and include anyone.
But when Eve is sick and misses school, how will Amanda ensure Eve doesn't have a blues-day back at school just like she did?
This is a terrific early chapter book that is a part of the ongoing Amanda Commander series, but can be read as a stand-alone story, with a great message of inclusion and friendship.
The Dolphin squad - Amanda, Mai and Lu - make it their mission to ensure that everyone is included when they have been off from school with an illness.
They have seen how being left out impacted Rosie, and then Amanda herself. So when Eve, who is not their friend at all, misses a few days they make sure that she doesn’t have a Blues Day Tuesday. It’s amazing how a little kindness goes a long way!
This is a charmingly positive early chapter book that younger readers aged six to eight will engage with, learn from, and hopefully adore.
