Review:
We all have a sidekick. It can be a person, pet or even a
favorite toy. The best part of having and being a friend is having someone to
share with. These pages are filled with wonderful photography. Author Barbara
Kerley has always valued the importance of friendship. Readers will see first-hand
by viewing the stunning images of what friends do together. Readers may even
recognize similarities in some of the things they do and share with their friends
or family. Short sentences put rhyme and focus to what readers will see,
therefore connecting the vibrant photography to the meaning of friendship. For
example, one image shows a young girl dressed in pink sharing an ice cream cone
coated with sprinkles with a large white dog with black spots. Another image has
three boys sliding down a muddy slide. The words turn the readers focus to
friends being brave together. Another photo shows two girls sitting on the floor
in the aisle at a library sharing a favorite book. There is lots to see and
ponder.
Author Barbara Kerley wants readers to see and feel what
it means to have and be a friend no matter what you like to do. Sharing is
caring and this heart felt view into the meaning of friendship would be a very
important reminder or tool for any library.
