This is one of my favorite books. I have always enjoyed it. It shos how simple little things can get in the way of a friendship. They go back and forth trying to be better than each other and end up getting into a fight. I highly recommend this book for any child.

Summary: Good book
Comment: Olivia is five years old, and attends kindergarten. She doesn't have any brothers and sisters but has a cat named Rosie who is her best friend. Her teachers name is Mrs. Beejorgenhoosen. One day Olivia sees a moving van next door and is curious to who is moving in. When she sees a family going into the house, she quickly runs outside to introduce herself. She meets Rachel Elizabeth Parker who is also five. She learns that Rachel is going to be in her class. She and Rachel quickly become friends, until Olivia learns that Rachel is a show-off. Rachel and Olivia take turns going over to each others houses and playing. Olivia and Rachel get into an argument because they both think they are better than each other. The next day at school Mrs. Bee tells them they are the teachers and they both have to read to the class. They learn that they are not better than each other, and instead they help each other out. In the end they make up and are glad they are friends. I liked this book because it taught how someone you may think is a show off really has problems doing things too.

Summary: Good story, a little too long...
Comment: Olivia gets a new neighbor, who's also in her Kindergarten class. When she discovers how smart Rachel is, she isn't so sure she wants to be her friend anymore. But when Olivia's favorite teacher makes up an interesting game, Olivia and Rachel learn why it's not so bad having a friend that challenges you.
The story is good, and the idea is excellent. However, my two daughters (ages 5 & 6) found it a little long. I have to admit, I even found it a bit too long. All in all, it is a good story with a good lesson to teach your child... and one probably best for bedtime, since you may find your child asleep by the end.
