Why read it?
1 author picked Little Brown as one of their favorite books. Why do they recommend it?
Little Brown is not the type of book on friendship I originally intended to include. The main character is sad and friendless, and that doesn’t really change by the end of the book.

For older picture book age children beginning to confront bullying and misunderstanding in school settings, it may lead to thought-provoking and important questions.
From Anne's list on picture books about navigating friendship.
