Just as its painterly illustrative style demands that readers squint, pay attention, and peer at the pages to see better, Dot has to think anew about friendship when a boy, Albert, moves in next door. The book's rewards grow with rereadings.

This story about a girl & her stuffed owl finding some adventure is a lovely portrait of taking risks and finding ways to be brave.
