(4) K-3 Illustrated by Lauren Castillo. Accompanied by his dog, a boy struggles up a snowy hillside pulling a sled. At the top, they play and share a snack, but the high point of the satisfying expedition occurs when the boy reads "the very best book"--called Two Good Friends--aloud to his dog. Expressive watercolors set the wintry scene and convey the affectionate companionship between the two friends in this sentimental tale.
