Synopsis
A fence has gaps. A sentence has two halves.
Two stories in one book: read it forward and it is Bob's story; turn it over and read it back - the same pages, the same words - and it is Otto's.
Bob hears his best friend through the fence: "Bob is not my friend." He runs off with the half he heard. On the other side, Otto is finishing the sentence - "Bob is my best friend" - to a boy who is already gone. Nothing is added and nothing is hidden; you simply hear the other side of the fence.
A perspective-taking picture book for ages 4 to 8, about the thing every child does: hearing part of something and carrying the rest home. One question to ask at the end - what did the other boy mean?
Opens and closes on the same line: You are my best friend.
Book 1 of Bob & Otto, by Jesper K. Lassen. From VEN Method - social-emotional learning that builds connection and community in classrooms and at home.

About the Author
Jesper K. Lassen has been on a stage since he was seven years old. He is a mentalist - more than a thousand performances, and his own documentary series on Danish national television. He is the founder of VEN Method, a social-emotional learning company built on one idea: connection is something children can be taught, and most of us were left to pick it up by luck. VEN Method builds connection and community in classrooms and at home - a whole group around one shared thing, in place of individual screen time. He wrote the Bob and Otto books so the youngest readers could practice the same thing on paper, with a grown-up: hear one side, turn the book over, hear the other, and ask. Jesper K. Lassen is Danish. VEN Method is based in Texas.
