Review Quotes:

This book is termed an "easy reader," but in truth, it is poetry. Lobel's introduction to his beloved woodland pair, whose many books of adventure have endured for more than 50 years, is a lyrical meditation on the joys and challenges of friendship. It is wonderful to read aloud, and wonderful to hear--again and again and again. - Kate DiCamillo, The Atlantic 65 Essential Children's Books, 2025
