"There''s a magic that''s yours, and it''s like nothing else. It''s something you share just by being yourself. It''s hard to define, but I know that it''s real. It''s something my head and my heart simply feel." This is a book for a friend you appreciate, one who matters more than a little. It''s a celebration of someone who''s so good, it''s hard to find just the right words to share how much they mean. Featuring a whimsical cast of adorable animals and playful, endearing rhymes, this friendship book is a charming way to shine a light on someone who makes life brighter. Offer it as a thoughtful gift to celebrate a birthday or show appreciation for a friend who is one of a kind.

Industry Reviews

A heartfelt thank you to a special friend.

Speaking in the first person and addressing an unidentified friend as you, the author begins this little tribute by expressing appreciation for all the friend is and does. Assuring the friend that where you are, things are brighter, the author adds, you're a gem, you're a peach, you're a wonderful friend. Admitting it's hard to find the right words (even in a giant...dictionary), the author asserts the friend is gooder than good and kinder than kind, and there's just no way to describe the friend's inner light and spirit. Indeed, knowing this friend is part of the author's life makes even the rainy days feel more alright. Present on all the author's brightest days, the fr iend has clearly made more than a little difference in the author's life. The rhyming text adds quiet cadence to this somewhat abstract ode to friendship while precise, small-scale illustrations, rendered in pale tans and greens, provide a visual context featuring a fox and a squirrel wearing old-fashioned shirts and knickers. Each page turn reveals the two friends together: kite-flying, picnicking, gathering honey, fishing, catching fireflies, drinking tea, sheltering under a toadstool, dancing, hopping across lily pads, cycling, swinging, star-gazing, sleeping in hammocks, and sharing all their brightest days surrounded by delicate botanicals.

A gentle paean to friendship most suitable for that perfect friend. (Picture book. 7-10) - Kirkus
