Having friends is fun, but what if your friends have crooked noses and button eyes? Extraordinarily long tails? Four feet? Blue ears? Can be stacked in a pile five friends deep? Then it's even more fun, of course! Read about one child's collection of unique friends in Five Friends Deep, a collection of short poems and charming illustrations for children ages 4 to 8. REVIEWS:"Five Friends Deep is a great book that I would read to my class when talking about rhyming words. The characters/animals are fun for readers. The use of colorful descriptive words paints an excellent picture of the animals almost as good as the illustrations!"Angi S. - Austin, MN "What a wonderful book! I could picture myself reading this book to youngsters! The illustrations are wonderful as well!"Jen T. - Austin, MN "The things that my children and I enjoyed about this book is the fun use of colors, the adorable illustration of the animals, and the rhyming words in the text. My son is working on rhyming words at school and this book was great for him to practice. I also enjoyed the variety of presentations on each page, it really intrigues the imagination. I do think that others would enjoy reading this book and would appreciate the adorable, colorful animals in the book."Hailey E. - Austin, MN

In a starred review Publishers Weekly raves: "It’s an avant-garde, surrealist story with a Hollywood-style tearjerker lurking within—and a surprisingly charming and affecting one at that." Award-winning poet Matthea Harvey and illustrator extraordinaire Giselle Potter team up to create an indescribably unique picture book about wanting to be normal, then coming to appreciate being different. Ruby would love to be like everyone else—not easy when you have a tiara-wearing mother and a father who spends his time trimming outrageous topiary. She'd also like to get a nice normal pet, maybe a dog. Then, on a family vacation to Norway, she finds herself adopted by a small, affectionate glacier. How Cecil, as the ice pet is named, proves himself to Ruby—risking his own meltdown—is a story sure to thrill and delight young readers.
