Editorial Review

"Whether you are reading this story alone or reading with a buddy, I know you'll enjoy every single page!

The light-hearted illustrations do highlight aspects of true friendship. It shares sentiments I agree with wholeheartedly and know many readers will also. For instance, "One great mate is better than 100 followers." As a parent, I reinforce this sentiment with my children. I tell them all the time that it's the quality of those around you, not the quantity, that matters in life. Having one great friend you trust completely and who trusts you is worth more than surrounding yourself with dozens of acquaintances you can not count on in good times or bad.

Children and adults will love their simple yet charming design. The drawings will make you smile! This entire book will brighten your day!

I plan to be a good mate and share The Mate Code with my friends. I encourage parents to share this book with their children...and ask what a true friend means to them!

Whether you are reading this story alone or reading with a buddy, I know you'll enjoy every single page! "
