Reviews
"A lovely lesson in the simple acts of friendship, especially recommended for the most popular kids in class." --USA Today

"This is a simple yet heartfelt story." --School Library Journal, starred review

"Tender illustrations rendered in glowing hues capture Brian's isolation deftly...Accessible, reassuring and hopeful." --Kirkus Reviews

"Ludwig and Barton understand classroom dynamics...They portray Brian's situation as a matter of groupthink that can be rebooted through small steps. It's a smart strategy, one that can be leveraged through the book's excellent discussion guide."
--Publishers Weekly

"Trudy Ludwig has given us the gift of another empathic, poignant book for children that addresses the complex topic of peer relationships...A must-read."
--Carrie Goldman, award-winning author of BULLIED: What Every Parent, Teacher, and Kid Needs to Know about Ending the Cycle of Fear
