Reviews

[James · Rating 5 out of 5]

Such a delightful book, a lovely story that touches on issues of friendship in a simple and child-like way. Dealing with (what might be in a difficult topic) in a positive way that feels natural & doesn't seem crow-bared into the story.

Highly recommend parents read this book to their kids.
