Description
What does it mean to be a friend, and to be loyal? The kids who live on Degrassi Street stay friends when times are happy and when they're sad--they know how much friends can mean.
In Griff Gets a Hand and Other Stories the kids learn the ups and downs of friendship: Connie discovers how to be a real team player; Lisa remembers how important a best friend can be; and Griff has to cope with the death of his good pal Danny.
Based on the ground breaking Kids of Degrassi Street television program, this book offers a sensitive and engaging look at the challenges of childhood.
