A small disagreement about food options in the lunchroom snowballs into a grade-wide argument that threatens to break up Bucket's friend group when they find themselves in opposing camps. Acting as representatives from either side, Bucket and Lu hold a recess summit that leads to the Great Recess Debate, where both groups get a chance to talk and listen without trying to win. An inspiring story about the importance of healthy debate, seeing things from another's perspective, and understanding that friendship doesn't always mean perfect agreement. Bucket and Friends Argue and Then Save (Part of) the World by author and educator Tom Rademacher gets at the heart of what's on kids' minds with kindness, humor, and insight. Each book in the Bucket and Friends series shows how activism big or small can enable young people to thrive and affect positive change for themselves and others. An included discussion guide offers further suggestions for ways kids can seek and provide help navigating their world
