Kiki Forgives Her Friend β A Forgiveness Story | Shalvit Kids TV Storybook No. 70
**CRASH! The tower came down β and so did Kiki's smile.** π
Kiki and her best friend Lulu build the tallest, proudest, rainbow-brightest block tower EVERβ¦ and then β a brushing sleeve, one waggy puppy tail, and **CRASH!** It was an accident. Nobody meant it. But Kiki's feelings are big and honest: she feels HURT, she feels CROSS, and nobody rushes her. What happens next is the gentle heart of this story: five slow brave breaths, a friend who says sorry **and means it and helps to make it right**, and one brave little sentence that changes everything β **"I forgive you."** Then comes the best part of all: building a brand-new tower TOGETHER, and taping two paper hearts back together β because **mended hearts are strong hearts**. On every refrain page, the whole family chants: **"Hurt, breathe, forgive β friends again!"** π΅
This is the forgiveness companion to our much-loved *Kiki Says Sorry* (No. 50): that book taught children how to say sorry; this one teaches the other half β how to **receive** a sorry and forgive, in Mummy's unforgettable words: *"Forgiving means I let go of the cross feeling and choose love again β it doesn't mean it didn't hurt."* With one simple line of faith woven through β *"God forgives us, so we can forgive our friends"* β it is a story Sunday schools and families will reach for again and again.
