My Friend is Sad

Author/Illustrator: Mo Willems
Year: 2007
Age Level: 2-7
Series: Elephant and Piggie

Plot Summary: One day Piggie discovers that Elephant is very sad. He sits and sighs, and Piggie wonders how she can cheer him up. She tries dressing up as many things--a robot, a clown and a cowboy--but nothing is working. Finally Piggie confesses that she can't cheer him up, and realizes what would really cheer up Elephant is a friend.

My Rating: A. The expressions in this book are so delightful and the story is so cute. I can't think of any kid who would not love this book.
