Jack's friend, Charlie, knows how to get away with just about everything. Just say "sorry" and grown-ups will always back down.

But does an apology count if you don't really mean it? And what happens when the person you've hurt knows you don't mean it?

This book teaches the lesson that there's a whole lot more to a real apology than a simple "sorry."

Includes an informational section for adults.
