Caldecott medalist Matthew Cordell debuts his first early reader
series about two best friends who are as different from each other as
can be.
Cornbread LOVES planning. Poppy does not. Cornbread ADORES preparing.
Poppy does not. Cornbread IS ready for winter. Poppy...is not. But
Cornbread and Poppy are the best of friends, so when Poppy is left
without any food for the long winter, Cornbread volunteers to help her
out. Their search leads them up, up, up Holler Mountain, where these
mice might find a new friend...and an old one. Celebrating both
partnership and the value of what makes us individuals, young readers
will find this classic odd-couple irresistible as they encounter
relatable issues with humor and heart.
