Description:
New neighbours have arrived! When Mrs. Gnu and little Nelly come over for a playdate, Mama Llama gently reminds Llama Llama to be welcoming — and to share. Llama starts cautiously, offering his blocks, and things go surprisingly well — building towers, making moats, sailing toy boats. Maybe having a playmate isn't so bad after all! But then Nelly reaches for Fuzzy Llama, his most treasured stuffed toy, and everything unravels in an instant. A desperate tug of war leaves poor Fuzzy with a ripped-off arm, tears all around, and two very sorry small animals. Told in Anna Dewdney's signature bouncing rhyme and brought to life through her warm, expressive paintings, this sixth title in the beloved Llama Llama series handles the everyday challenge of sharing with honesty, humour, and just the right amount of "llama drama." A perfect read-aloud for any child still working on taking turns.
