Hilarious! I love the tension of predator/prey friends.Great read-aloud. ( )

friendship ( )

I found this book to have a great meaning. Having two complete opposite types of animals become friends sends a great message to the reader that just because you may be different in size, shape, color, or background, doesn't mean you can't become friends. This book also showed that other people might question the friendship or act negatively towards it, but the two remained friends and stayed loyal to each other. I also liked the plot twist towards the end of the book. It made the reader question if Bear was going to eat Squirrel. The illustrations were very engaging for the reader with all of the bright colors, and showing the similar interests between them. ( )
