Charlie and Isabelle are great friends. They play every Friday, and they like to do many of the same things. Isabelle has Down's syndrome, so sometimes she doesn't run as fast, and her speech can be a little hard to understand. But they love dancing and going to the playground, and even when they fall out and hurt each other's feelings, they soon make up over apple juice and Cheerios. Charlie and Isabelle are learning about the joys of diversity. The simple, flat illustrations and occasional integrated text are very effective. A lovely book.
