Finally Friends: Donut the Dog & Peanut the Squirrel Learn Social Skills (Donut & Peanut Collection) by Debbie Sullivan – Review by Jennifer Crain

Finally Friends: Donut the Dog & Peanut the Squirrel Learn Social Skills by Debbie Sullivan
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

Finally Friends is a delightful children’s book that masterfully intertwines a charming narrative about two unlikely friends with essential lessons in social-emotional learning. The story revolves around Donut the Dog, who longs for companionship, and Peanut the Squirrel, who initially struggles with the idea of building a friendship.

The book’s strength lies in its poignant themes of patience, communication, and understanding. Donut’s persistent yet gentle approach to making friends with Peanut serves as an excellent example for children navigating their own social interactions. The narrative demonstrates that friendships can take time to develop and that overcoming fear and misunderstanding is part of the process.
