Written by Jacqueline Resnick, Illustrated by Matthew Cook
A wonderful story of friendship in times of trouble. The bullying is hard to read, especially since animals are involved. The animals are clever and you want them to succeed with all your heart. The illustrations really add to the overall story. I recommend that it be placed and introduced to our students. They will love it.
