Jerome by Heart by Thomas Scotto - ADVISABLE

Jerome by Heart by Thomas Scotto, illustrated by Olivier Tallec PICTURE BOOK Enchanted Lion Books 2018 $17 1592702503

BUYING ADVISORY: EL (K-3) - ADVISABLE 

AUDIENCE APPEAL: AVERAGE 

Jerome is the best, he chooses Raphael for his partner on school field trips, he shares his snacks, he defends Raphael when kids make fun of him, and he tells great stories. No wonder Raphael loves his friend Jerome, and he's not afraid to say it. 

I love this book so much! The illustrations are sweet, and the relationship is innocent. It's easy to feel love, sometimes it's hard to say it. Originally published in French, and if read with a different perspective, it can also be a book about acceptance.
