deirdrekoala's review against another edition
4.0
After seeing Janet Wong at the iYouth Conference, I picked up this book and read it rather quickly. It's a very cute children's story/poem about best friends, worms, and lizard catching. The illustrations are also pretty charming--they remind me a bit of Quentin Blake's.

Although I read this to kill time, it turned out to be a remarkable find with a lot of unexpected merits. The poetic format surprised and impressed me for the age group it seems to be written for, and the conflict involves heavier subjects that are approached enough to be meaningful without being overwhelming. Highly recommend.
