This gentle and ultimately redeeming story in poems is about those secure and fulfilling friendships that happen naturally and easily when you live right next door, and the struggles of losing the comfort of a familiar place. Matt Phelans warm and expressive illustrations perfectly complement Eileen Spinellis tenderhearted and unique tale that reminds us that sometimes a little uprooting and change is necessary for growth.
