Taraji P. Henson Finds Inspiration at Home for New Children's Book: 'We Always Want to Fix Things for Our Kids' (Exclusive)
Taraji P. Henson's book, 'You Can Be a Good Friend (No Matter What!),' follows a young girl as she is teased in school for being different. The actress was inspired by her own family to write the story and includes a sweet dedication to her grandmother at the start.
Henson, 53, was inspired by her own family to write the story, which includes a sweet dedication to her grandmother at the start: "You catch more flies with honey." "And so [we're] just trying to teach the children at a very young age that it's a choice and you can choose to be a good friend no matter what, and usually the other person will come around." I'm an advocate for mental wellness, and so it's always about meeting people where they are and trying to help as much as I can make this journey called life a little easier for all of us," Henson says.
