There are a few things / about your best friend that you can only learn / when you see where he''s from. Minn knew / that Jake was from the city. But she didn''t know / that his grandmother was Korean. That he liked taking bubble baths. / That his brother, Soup, might be an eating champion. / That Jake was a cheater, and that he had a . . . / girlfriend?! There are some things / about your best friend that it''s better not / to know. Bouncing free verse and playful black-and-white illustrations combine to make this a charming follow-up to Minn and Jake. Minn and Jake''s Almost Terrible Summer is a 2009 Bank Street - Best Children''s Book of the Year.
