Yo! Yes?
Paperback
(Scholastic Paperbacks Sept. 1, 1998)
, 1st Orchard Paperbacks Ed Edition
Chris Raschka's Caldecott Honor classic is a simple yet dramatic story about friendship. Available for the first time in a Scholastic Bookshelf paperback version.
"An effective, unusual 34-word story of the beginnings of a friendship, accompanied by wild and wonderful illustrations. Against pastel backgrounds, in vibrant, colorful images, an African-American boy and a white boy meet on the street. [Their] one- and two-word exchanges on each spread lead to a tentative offer of friendship, sealed as both boys jump high in the air and yell "Yow!" With a beautifully balanced, economical style, the book illumines the peaks and pitfalls of getting acquainted, and puts in a good word for brotherhood as well." --School Library Journal, starred review
