Content: G.
Here and There are friends who can never be together, as
their names imply. They end up being pen
pals until There comes up with an idea for the two to spend time with each
other. With some imagination and a
little work There becomes Here for a bit and the two enjoy a fun day
together.
This book has colorful illustrations and the carnival
setting will appeal to young readers. This book depicts the struggles of
long-distance friendships. However, the
play on words got repetitive and may be difficult for younger readers to
grasp.
EL (K-3) – OPTIONAL.
