Later, Gator!

(3) PS "'Later, Gator!' / 'See you soon, Baboon.'" In speech-bubble text, Gator bids farewell to his friends before his family moves. Lonely in his new neighborhood, Gator reaches out to make friends after receiving encouraging letters from his old buddies. The playful watercolor and acrylic-ink illustrations capture Gator's emotions as the text skillfully navigates the moving process, from goodbyes to hellos: "Howdy do, Kangaroo!"
