Daniela's best friend, Evelyn Del Ray, is moving away. They have been best friends for a long time. They live across the street from each other in mirror image apartments. They know that everything will be different now, because this afternoon Evelyn is moving. They promise to keep in touch. No matter what, they will always know that they were each others first best friend.

 The two girls share a really special and cute friendship. The illustrations add to the story and show the friendship in pictures, even expressions. This would be a great gift to a little girl who has a best friend moving away, or a girl who just moved away from her best friend. I loved the story, their cute friendship and the bright illustrations.
