Victoria Turnbull has written and illustrated a story about friendship and growing up that will resonate with readers, who will hear echoes of Shel Silverstein’s The Giving Tree between the lines, and enjoy the dreamlike water-colored illustrations that depict a lasting friendship between a merchild and his favorite pet.  Sweetly evocative, pensive, and nostalgic, Turnbull’s picture book will hold great appeal for a wide-ranging audience.
