The simple but delightful story focuses on the fun of friendship. However, the photographic illustrations elevate the book, making it an extraordinary reading experience.

Every young reader should be exposed to Kadir Nelson's illustrations. A depth of character expression emerges through his saturated tones and impeccable artistry that cannot be conveyed in words. His foray into capturing a time period through text is admirable; he presents this segment of history methodically and memorably. Don't miss this. Recommended for ages 7-12. [jw]
