An excellent book for a simple read-aloud in a primary setting or as an independent choice for a beginning reader. Some friendships do not last forever, it is okay to fly solo, and new friendships come when you least expect them; these are comforting and relatable lessons for any child struggling with loss or change.
The fuzzy pair once more exhibit behavior to emulate as they resolve minor differences, withhold judgment, and meet each other where they are. Fans of the series will be as delighted as newcomers.
A suggested first purchase for all libraries, this book urges readers to imagine the improbable, “Sit in the sun and shine” and “X out all the bad stuff,” for anyone may, as the title suggests,“Roar like a dandelion.”
A perfect choice for those who have graduated from new reader materials but aren't quite ready for lengthier chapter books. Highly recommend for purchase.–Amy Nolan, St. Joseph Public Library, MI
