Be A Friend is a short story about children that are living with HIV. This isn't a typical book because it is actually writings and drawings of the children that live with HIV. They talk about their dealings with HIV and how they go about their every day life. This book really hits you close to the heart because the writings are from real children that have illustrated the pictures as well. One thing that I really liked about the book, is how the often bring up God. They ask questions like "Why do I have to have HIV?" and "Will God find a cure for HIV?"

I found this book to be very touching because it is from the children's point of view who are living with HIV. Instead of their lives being written about, each child has put in their own words and drawings what it is like to be different and live with HIV.
