PreSchool-K–Emma Kate and her elephant best friend sit next to one another in school, share lunches, play at recess, finish their homework, and go to soccer practice. They even have their tonsils out at the same time, sharing a hospital bed and gallons of pink ice cream. The girl's bright red dress stands out against the white background and soft charcoal-gray pencil drawings of the large friendly elephant. Subtle hints in the illustrations of the dress, a license plate that reads BIGMOME, and a hospital chart lead readers to the surprise ending: Momma and Daddy elephant comment on their child's active imagination as they are told all about her day with Emma Kate. The only possible drawback to this otherwise amiable story of imaginary friendship is the fact that the classmates are human, making readers think twice about the conclusion.–Kristine M.

Foreign Customer Review / 国外客户评价: |
Children will easily relate to this story of friendship and how much it means to have a really good pal - a best friend, if you will. Polacco's pencil drawings and bright watercolors create an excellent contrast in her attractive illustrations.
Four to eight year old youngsters will probably nod wisely as they hear about all the things Emma Kate and her best friend do together - walking to school together, eating lunch together, and riding their bikes after school. They even develop tonsillitis together!
The surprise in this togetherness comes at the story's conclusion when Polacco introduces a new twist on friendship.
One more engaging story from the superb Polacco who says that she modeled the elephant in this story on the character in a favorite book she read as a little girl - "Horton Hatches the Egg" by Dr. Seuss.
