Description
When I think something is important You think it's important too We have good ideas When I say something funny You laugh I think I'm funny And you think I'm funny too This is the book that Thelma would give Louise, Bill would give Ted, Charlie Brown would give Snoopy, and you can give to whoever you love. Adorable, a little bit spiky, with lovely illustrations, this is a classic reading for weddings, a charming book for kids and the perfect present for the people who love you best.

A native of New Haven, Connecticut, Sandol Stoddard graduated magna cum laude from Bryn Mawr College and raised four sons in California before moving to Hawaii in 1983. She died in 2018. JACQUELINE CHWAST illustrated over 50 books for children, including The Perilous Pit, a New York Times Book Review Best Illustrated Children's Books of 1993.
ReviewsAn almost unbearably lovely vintage illustrated ode to friendship ... one of the tenderest and most touching presents I've ever gotten, from one of my dearest friends ... love - that sweetest, most knotless and untroubled kind - is what radiates from these simple, surprisingly profound verse-like meditations on friendship, illustrated with the kindred sensibility of Chwast's simple yet richly expressive black-and-white line drawings. -- Maria Popova * Brain Pickings *
