"A dazzling debut, That's What Friends Do is a gorgeous, heartbreaking, and deeply felt tribute to the power of friendship." -- Paul Griffin, author of When Friendship Followed Me Home "Barnhart artfully weaves two viewpoints together, offering a frank portrayal of middle school struggles and the ever-changing nature of friendship." -- Dee Romito, author of The BFF Bucket List "The book opens the doors to honest and truthful experiences of damage as a result of gender stereotypes that painfully impact both girls and boys." -- Bulletin of the Center for Children's Books (starred review) "A careful introduction to consent and sexual harassment for a middle-grade audience. A worthy, timely, ambitious debut." -- Kirkus Reviews "Readers who are beginning to navigate more complicated emotions and personal boundaries will appreciate this story which deftly handles sensitive topics like inappropriate touching and body autonomy." -- School Library Journal "Fans of Barbara Dee, Ali Benjamin, and Lynda Mullaly Hunt will find this discussion of shattered friendships, toxic masculinity and bullying to be a riveting read." -- Young Adult Books Central "Told in dual perspectives, this important book will generate conversations about rape culture, consent, and positive relationships.
