Product Description
Review
This is a simply an exquisite picture book. Cave's text is touching and heart-felt, whilst Maland's wonderful illustrations capture the essence of what it is to find - and keep - a friend. (BfK )
A lyrical text ... Nick Maland's softly drawn creatures, gloriously mismatched in shape and size, nicely suggest that friendship can cross barriers. There is no didacticism in the book, only an understanding of the essence of interdependency. (Julia Eccleshare, The Guardian )
...delicately stylish.' (my BOOKS mag )
PRAISE FOR YOU'VE GOT DRAGONS
ALSO BY CAVE / MALAND
My favourite picture book of the year - The Glasgow Herald
Remarkable - The Sunday Times
Friends is a book that tugs at your heartstrings from the first page, and explores the importance of finding and keeping a friend. Thepictures are simple in style yet delicately stylish. They beautifully express the up and down emotions of childhood friendship. (My books Mag Spring 2005 )
Heartwarming and moving illustrations of the wonders of friendship. (Bournemouth Daily Echo )
I would run out of superlatives in trying to do this book justice. Buy it and give yourself a real treat. (Books for Keeps )

Format:Paperback
This is a great book with a strong message about friends, how they are there for you and help you in different ways and how friendship is reciprocal. Other than the message, however, this book is delightfully gentle in every way, in soft colours with minimal text and simple words. It would be a great addition to any child's bookshelf from age 1.
