“Van Hout expertly conveys the emotional peaks and valleys of
each friendship; the monster's eyes and expressions speak
volumes.”— Publishers Weekly *Starred Review* Back in
print at last! Award-winning author-illustrator Mies Van Hout
celebrates the fun (and sometimes bumpy) stages of friendship as
monster friends play, fight, and reconcile. Set against Mies
van Hout’s iconic black backgrounds and utilizing the same
vibrant pastel style of the internationally bestselling Happy, each
spread of Friends shows a pair of childlike monsters portraying a
single verb, from play to tease to fight, reconcile, and cuddle.
Originally published in 2013, this critically acclaimed picture
book is both a beautiful art book and a valuable tool for
social-emotional learning. Carefully crafted “monster”
characters express an emotional depth that is visually stunning and
relatable to children and adults alike. This new,
high-value edition of Friends features extra-heavy pages that, like
the truest friendship, will stand the test of time and repeated
readings. “Like the earlier Happy (2012), this conveys
emotional heft and arresting images in an appealing, child-size
package.”— Kirkus Reviews
