A lyrical story with heartfelt ideas about what it means to be a good friend from the team that brought us The Love That Grew.

Four children of diverse ethnicities interacting: a boy in a green shirt smiling at a girl with dark hair and braids in a floral dress, a girl in a pink polka-dot shirt with a headscarf waving, and a boy in a white shirt giving a thumbs-up.
Two children, a girl with red hair wearing a pink hat and overalls, and a boy with dark curly hair wearing a yellow coat and a red scarf, are planting a yellow flower in a terracotta pot.

“Do you know what it takes to be a friend, someone on whom someone else depends? Just a few ingredients, tips and tricks, Make the perfect friendship mix!”
