From Booklist
PreS-Gr. 2. In this large-format picture book, a baby named Will and a young squirrel named Squill meet in the backyard. Despite their mothers' objections--"'Awful dirty squirrel!' said Will's mother. "Awful dirty baby!' said Squill's mother"--they become fast friends over the next few years. When Will's parents surprise him with a kitten, he pays more attention to the pet than to Squill for a little while, but soon he misses his old friend. Clark deals with the kitten complication smoothly, leaving the way open for a happy ending. Beyond the satisfying story, the many instances of wordplay and parallel sentences make this text both a challenge and a pleasure to read aloud. The imaginative pencil drawings, brightened with watercolor washes, create a simple, child-friendly world that many will find appealing. Even the impossible details of the squirrel's activities seem quite plausible in the context of Clark's sure-handed illustrations. Add this to the story hour list of picture books celebrating friendship. Carolyn Phelan
