An oft-told learning journey that all friend groups must navigate;
this simple telling may resonate in ways others do not.
—Kirkus Reviews
Elliott presents a pair of best friends, the two Tims, who delight
in doing everything together. That is, until Tom comes along...The
text’s limited vocabulary and the strong visual cues provided by
Alborozo’s loose, sketchy pen and watercolor illustrations make
this a good choice for emerging readers. The visual punch line at
the end of the book will be familiar to anyone who has experienced
the challenges and joys of making new friends while keeping the
old. A sweet, simple friendship story that will have wide
appeal.
—School Library Journal
Elliot collaborates with Alborozo to produce a charming story that
addresses a common problem among inseparable friends...Alborozo’s
playful, cartoonish scenes—mixed media illustrations with squiggly
ink lines and soft washes of color—are a wonderful complement to
Elliot’s simple yet engaging text. Closing on an encouraging note
with a clever twist, this makes for a great story time read as well
as a delightful educational tool.
