Vibrant illustrations and a simple, rhythmic text are perfectly blended
in this spirited homage to friendship as a little girl recounts all the
things she has learned from an enchanting menagerie of animal friends: I
learned to run from my friend the horse. I learned to sing from my
friends the birds. I learned to read from my friends the books. And I
learned to love from a friend like you.
The bold graphic design and brightly colored illustrations that have
become the trademark of Taro Gomi's work will appeal to both children
and adults.
