| Publisher Description: Two funny, unlikely friends--a thoughtful sloth and an impatient fox--star in this hilarious picture book celebrating friendship and the wonderful ways in which we're all different. Best friends Jasper and Ollie decide to go to the pool. On your mark, get set . . . WAIT As Jasper races ahead--crashing into the mailman, speeding past the ice cream truck--Ollie takes his sweet time, pausing to admire a butterfly, smell a daisy, and help the mailman pick up his letters With a clever design that shows Jasper's hectic rush compared with Ollie's casual stroll, this hilarious story allows young readers to easily recognize the differences between the two pals. It's a smartly paced, hugely funny celebration of what makes each person special. Kids AND grown-ups will giggle as they decide if they're more of a Jasper or an Ollie. It's also a great story to share the concept of taking time to smell the roses--a perfect lesson in our overly scheduled world. Also available: Jasper & Ollie Build a Fort. |
