13 Stories About Harris By Amy Schwartz Oooo...this is one of those picture books that is adorable and special! Story One introduces Harris, a curly mopped kid, and his neighborhood. Harris draws a dragon with an exceptionally long tail that goes around the block and even around some people, then back home again. The stories and precious illustrations, some on one page and one sentence long, some three pages with more sentences, follow Harris as he falls, makes butter, goes to a birthday party, pretends to be a truck and more. All these are wonderful but what makes this book great is Harris’s very best friendship with Ayana. They have play dates, make mischief, go off to preschool together and swing holding hands. This is a friendship made to last a lifetime. I think both kids and their grown up readers will love this one. (It would make a good gift book for a preschooler.)
