Description
In the novel Children’s Friendships: The Beginning of Intimacy, Judy Dunn gives her readers a
look into the relationships of toddlers, preschoolers, and school children. Chapter 4 talks
about what factors might contribute to the different types of friendships children have at a
young age. Although she lists some potential factors that contribute to her research question,
none have been proven true. A reason for this is that children in preschool and kindergarten
are too young, so she cannot give solid evidence.
