Welcome to Litsy!

One of my favorite picture books to come out in the past few months. I love the simplicity of the stories, combined with big words like “lamenting”! I have mad love for this precious book. ❤️

Lots of great stuff going on in this charming #picturebook that‘s perfect for emerging readers:
-All in dialogue.
-Typographical clues indicate change in speaker.
-Story presented in 3 chapters.
-It‘s about negotiating friendship, an appealing topic for kids who have just started school.
-Funny, whimsical illustrations help decipher what‘s going on.
-Similar to A Lobel‘s Frog and Toad.
Also works as a laptime book for younger kids. Ages 4-8.

Dove: Do you ever wish we were twins?
Yak: No, Dove, I have never wished that.

This story almost seems to be three different stories woven into one. The Yak and the Dove are friends, but they are not twins. Finding a new friend can be hard. And one has to learn the love the noisy quiet. A fun book of back and forth between two friends.

I love this story! It perfectly encapsules how opposites can be friends. I am going to recommend it to my school's lower elementary teachers and guidance counselors.

Loving these illustrations!

If this is the #endpaper then it is lovely!
