Two little girls find each other and become fast friends, but then, when one of them moves away, they “get by” writing letters, calling each other and planning a visit. The text is the lyrics of the Beatles song "With a Little Help from My Friends"

I have loved this series of illustrated classic songs. Even better when you listen to the song while you read. Henry Cole’s illustrations are splashed with color and nicely expressive. Imagining a story based on song lyrics.
