--KIRKUS REVIEWS, December 1992
This tightly-worded but lavishly-illustrated book is perfect for giving for Christmas to commemorate a special friendship.
Hubbard uses more words on the acknowledgements page than in the book to say thanks to all her 21 friends. The traits she shares with them are: sharing dreams, keeping secrets but not always agreeing, calling them first with news, not being too far apart, telling the (not always well-taken) truth, understanding their fears, being encouraging and making each other laugh, cheering one another on, not needing words, but just needing each other.
Hey, I'm one of Hubbard's friends too, because I'll call her first to tell her I like his book and I'm cheering her on to write another one like this. It comes with a cardboard slipcover.
