For Me?

(4) K-3 Translated by MaryChris Bradley. Duck, Otter, Toad, and Hedgehog find roses left on their doorsteps. They argue about who is "in love." It turns out the flowers are from a new neighbor, Mole, who, after a lovely day with the animal gang, becomes a platonic friend. Quirky illustrations in greens, browns, and reds animate the sweet but ultimately forgettable story about friendship.
Reviewer: Amy Lois Cohn
