For fans of My Best Friend and Tough Guys (Have Feelings Too) – a sweet story about what it feels like to have a best friend.

A young boy shares what it feels like to have a best friend by telling his friend how much he likes his face and all the reasons why. His friend’s face is so special he could spot it anywhere, even in a crowd of a million-gazillion people. He knows all the faces his friend makes, like his “Silly Face” and his “Holding-in-a-Fart Face.” And his friend knows all his faces, too, like his “I’m-There-For-You Face.” Because when you have a best friend, you’re never alone.

Brad Davidson’s charming text pairs beautifully with Rachel Más Davidson’s funny, heartwarming illustrations to create a lively picture book that celebrates the joys of true friendship. With different emotions represented on every page, the book is a wonderful tool for social-emotional learning and for helping children recognize facial expressions – a key stage of early childhood development. It has thoughtful character-education lessons on empathy, vulnerability, caring and kindness. This book would make an excellent gift as an expression of love to someone – no matter their age.
