(NorthSouth, Aug. 1, 2013)
When Little Jack Rabbit and his family visit the cabbage patch, his aunts and uncles tell him to stay away from the scary scarecrow. But Little Jack Rabbit thinks the scarecrow has kind eyes. “That means he has a warm heart,” says his mommy. Little Jack Rabbit’s mom couldn’t have been more right. When a winter storm moves in fast, trapping Little Jack Rabbit and his friends, they’re thankful that the scarecrow is there. And in spring…the friendship blooms again. • Bernadette Watts is known for her illustrations of classic fairy tales, but Will You Be My Friend? was written and illustrated by Watts. • The warm and detailed artwork invites children in to read and discover. • The last title Watts wrote and illustrated, The Smallest Snowflake, received wonderful reviews.
