Synopsis

Set in the diverse neighborhood of a big city, this poignant and universal story of friendship tells about two best pals who share everything together--even making up after a quarrel.

"Children will recognize their own relationships in the ebb and flow of Matthew and Tilly's friendship."--Booklist

"There can never be too many books about the importance of friendship and forgiveness--especially when they are of this caliber."--Publisher's Weekly

"This modest story line swells with the visual excitement of Peck's paintings. . . . Their power lingers in the mind long after they have been seen."--School Library Journal

About the Author:

Rebecca C. Jones is the author of sixteen books for children. She's written for newspapers, magazines, textbooks, and even TV stations. Most of her books have been fiction, based on things that happened to her or to someone she knows. But her most recent books--and all of her newspaper and magazine articles--have been nonfiction, about things that really did happen. She especially likes learning and writing about real people who did interesting things a long time ago.
