What does it mean to be best friends? In this simple description of friendship, the narrator begins, "I know everything about John and he knows everything about me." The boys know what is in each others' drawers and closets, what frightens each of them, and who they especially like. Quiet watercolors depict the many activities that make this friendship special.
