Simon and Molly are "the best of friends," but then Hester arrives, and Simon feels left out. When the children realize that both Hester and Simon have different skills to contribute, the friendship expands to accommodate all three. Jahn-Clough's brightly clad children, outlined in black, cavort on the page; her simple illustrations deftly reflect the story's emotions.
