Addie Needs a Friend Coloring Book

Spark creativity and imagination in your little one as they color Addie’s first day of school.

The heartwarming picture book Addie Needs a Friend introduces a little girl who overcomes her nerves to make a new friend. Now the companion coloring book invites children to make that story their own.

Featuring clean, bold line-art illustrations sized for little hands, each page captures moments from Addie's journey—from nervous butterflies to her very first "hello." Pages are perfect for crayons, colored pencils, or markers, allowing children ages 4-8 to express their own unique creativity as they revisit the themes of kindness, courage, and connection.

Perfect for independent play, quiet time, or preschool and early elementary classrooms, this coloring book pairs naturally with the picture book but can also be enjoyed on its own as a gentle introduction to creative expression and emotional learning. Sweet, simple, and full of heart, Addie Needs a Friend Coloring Book encourages imagination, fine motor skill development, and meaningful conversations about making friends.

Help your child color their way to confidence—one brave "hello" at a time.
