Ollie and Claire Illustrated by Matthew Cordell Philomel Books,
2013. $16.99 PICTURE BOOK Content: G.
Ollie and Claire are best friends and they like to do everything
together on a special schedule that they follow every day. However, Claire is getting bored and she
starts to look for something more exciting to do, so when she sees a note
posted in town to go to new places and try new things she goes home and packs
her bag. While waiting for Monday at
4:00, the time she is supposed to meet this new person to go and do fun things
with, she writes Ollie a note and tells him that she will miss him, but will be
back. She is shocked to find out that
Ollie is the person who posted the note in town and they are thrilled to be
going together on new adventure and try new things.
This is a cute book about friendship and
trying new things. It’s a bit
predictable, but the idea is cute and young readers will be happy to see the
two friends together on their adventures.
The illustrations are cute and the story reads in rhyme, which makes it
fun to read out loud.
