A great book about friendship - really nice art. Small children will enjoy this simple tale of the things we will do for a friend. Books that teach lessons about friendship are very important for small children to read; it helps them understand that friendship is a give/take relationship that you should always be aware of.

В цілому прикольно... Мальовка симпатична та підкупає, сюжет простенький, але для даного формату чудово підходить.

Але ось що мені не сподобалося, так це головна сюжетна зав'язка. Треба вкрасти діамант з музею, який є палив для космічного корабля. І автор показує охоронців, які чесно виконують свою роботу, якимись лиходіями. Ну... Через це, я б своїй дитині, цю книгу не читав. Хтось скаже, що я надто жорстко та прискіпливо ставлюсь до цієї дитячої книги. Але я вважаю, що для такого юного віку, діти не знають, що таке добре і погане, а тут показується, що красти можна, якщо тобі сильно треба.

Brown does not only take good care of the creative content in his stories but the quality of them as well as the finishing. I loved it!

The story is about friendship, but it is not written in a manner that managed to keep things interesting. The illustrations are good.

Very pretty, lovely textures. Nothing exceptional storywise but sure kids would love it.
