Reviews
"A simple tale of friendship between two children who are as different as night and day. ... Clearly the audience can see that these children admire the opposing personality traits that they find in one another. ... Use this offering as a supplement for friendship-themed storytimes." |


"Blabey's spirited and energetic paintings use acrylic and mixed media on textured board. Compositions vary boldly and deadpan humor runs throughout. Make sure to note Charlie's wonderfully expressive eyebrows; they, like this book, stand out."
