Description:
Using only thirty-four words scattered across the page, this Caldecott Honor book tells the story of two boys—one lonely, one outgoing—who meet on a city street corner. Through spare dialogue and Raschka's dynamic, expressive watercolor illustrations, the shy boy's isolation gradually gives way to connection as the two boys reach out to each other. Their exchange culminates in an exuberant celebration of new friendship, proving that big feelings need not require many words.
