My Review:
🌟🌟🌟🌟
A little story of changing people and evolving friends for kids
The book and its beautiful illustrations bring out the journey of growing up and changing friendships.
A little boy and his hand-made companion - a puppet, are very happy and are always together. As the boy grows up, he makes other friends and almost forgets his first friend.
The rhyming story conveys how early connections leave a lasting emotional bond for all of us. A sweet poetic read that celebrates the courage to grow while still cherishing childhood memories.
Thank you NetGalley for the e-ARC.
