5-8 Infant/Junior
Funny yet heartbreakingly sad, this is a very special book: one to keep and treasure. A tough, unsentimental exploration of the friendship between two children and the loss they feel on having to be parted as one moves away. The brilliant illustrations and the vivid images contained within tightly controlled language give us a book not to be forgotten.
