Little Nutbrown Hare wants to play, but Big Nutbrown Hare is too busy.  As the little hare tries to find someone to play with or something to do, he happens upon a Cloudy Mountain Hare.  The two quickly become friends, but due to a misunderstanding of who is hiding during hide-and-seek, they lose each other.  But at the end they find each other and are friends again.  

The sweet illustrations that made Guess How Much I Love You a hit, with adorable hares can also be found in this picture book.  The touching and simply formed friendship helps young readers to not overcomplicate making friends. Sweet, simple and appealing.  

Reviewer, C. Peterson.
