A beautiful and moving picture book from Waterstones Children's
Laureate, Joseph Coelho, tells the story of how a big, hairy
argument gets in between two best friends. "The argument came from
nowhere. It sat huge and bloated in the middle of the playground
between me and my best friend." This big hairy monster appears out
of the blue one day, splitting up the best friends and growing
bigger and bigger, until it starts to ruin all the children in the
playground's fun. Together, they learn how to shrink the monster
until it vanishes completely, to the point where they can't even
remember what it looks like! Coelho's gentle and lyrical verse pair
perfectly with Allison Colpoys' beautiful illustrations to create a
book which will be treasured by young readers. This is an ode to
the power of an apology, and to treasuring a special bond that runs
deeper than even the friends realised.

Alfie wants to participate in the best parts of being a kid, from
his friend Antoinette's birthday party to the relay races at
school. But his shyness keeps him from engaging. When Alfie wakes
up with That Feeling on the morning of yet another big event-the
underwater costume parade-his mom takes him to the aquarium. There,
Alfie meets a starfish who shines so boldly Alfie feels small. But
suddenly, a tiny clownfish swims up to Alfie for a quick hello and
retreats again. Alfie begins to understand that there's a happy
medium between hiding away and being the star, and that he needs to
come out of hiding every once and awhile to make meaningful
connections.
