4.0 out of 5 stars A pleasantly surprising topic for a children's book, September 11, 2000

This book was heart warming. Adults and children root for these two (somewhat) elderly characters as their friendship blooms. Books such as these can help children develp a healthy attitude towards love and romance. Quaint illustrations.

It is a special favourite at bedtimes. It is well written and interesting - not just one of those books that just drone on and on, I enjoy re-reading it just as if it was the first time.
