. PICTURE BOOK. Beach Lane Books (Simon), 2020. $18. 9781534446199

BUYING ADVISORY: Pre-K, EL (K-3), EL - ESSENTIAL 

AUDIENCE APPEAL: HIGH 

A lonely farmer gets a surprise visitor. It shows how much fun they have, the friendship and companionship they develop and how kind the farmer is to his visitor and new friend. 

This book has no words, but the beautiful illustrations tell an eloquent tale of friendship, companionship and kindness. I will pull this book out again and again and enjoy the quiet kindness of the farmer, the friendship that spans generations and the kindness of the farmer. It put a smile on my heart, as I am sure it will on your heart, too. This one is a treasure for sure. I highly recommend this book.
