Illustrated by
Jane Manning.
In an unoriginal rhyming text, best friends who like to share discover that not everything is so easily divided when they come across a toad they both want. While their tempers flare, the toad hops away. The boys come across a rock, and "kick until our mad is gone." The illustrations enhance this mildly amusing look at the difficulties of sharing for preschoolers.
