Best Friends

Whenever I think back to my childhood, and the books of that time, the two main authors I find appearing time and time again are Shel Silverstein and Steven Kellogg. This book was one of my favorites. When reading through, espically with children, one is transported along with characters through their dreams and imaginations. Kellogg's illustrations only add more pleasure to this already wonderfully written story. Even from a young age children become attracted to the storyline with it's honest characters and real emotions. (Plus the fact that everybody lives happily ever after doesn't hurt too much either.)A wonderful Children's Book, and one of my favorites.

This is one of the best friendship books I have ever encountered! It's a story about two girls that did everything together and were the best of friends, but their friendship is soon tested when they have to spend time apart. It teaches a valueable lesson to kids about friendship. I even learned something from the story. This really should be part of every child's book collection.

I felt this was an example of a child's friendship. This shows how a small girl feels when her best friend leaves. Many of my childhood friendships were the same way. Any child would love this book to be read to them over and over again.

The story was about two best friends. Louise went on a trip for summer vacation. While she was gone, Kathy missed her. Kathy got angry when she read the postcard that said Louise was having a great time. When Louise came back, she gave Kathy some gifts. At the end they shared a dog. These things helped them to be friends again.

This book had the most beautiful pictures of horses that I have ever come across. I would love to be able to draw just like him. I loved how he told about how great the friendship was. And how they worked out their problems together. I want to write and draw just like this someday.
