Book Description

Charlie Rooster, Johnny Mouse, and Percy the pig are the best of friends. They do everything together. They ride their bike together, play games together, and even do their chores together. Because that's what good friends do. When night falls, though, and it's time to go to bed, they learn that sometimes friends have to be apart. But that's okay, because true friends always find each other, even if it's just in their dreams.

5.0 out of 5 stars Beautiful and Simple, May 26, 1998

By A Customer

This review is from: Friends (Paperback)

The gorgeous illustrations and simple story show the true beauty of friendship -- being able to spend time together, even if just doing ordinary things. It also teaches that true friends live in our hearts and that distance does not separate true friends. A wonderful book for people of ALL ages!

5.0 out of 5 stars Whimsy, sweetness & wonderful illustrations, November 26, 2002

By A Customer

This review is from: Friends (Paperback)

This absolutely charming tale is told simply, yet carries such a potent message about friendship -- such as thoughtfulness and consideration, teamwork and the art of compromise... and accepting differences. The illustrations are delightful and made my children and I laugh out loud. We can't wait to read "Friends Go Adventuring!" We're going to investigate all of Helme Heine's books.
