Jennifer Starkman, July 7, 2007 (view all comments by Jennifer Starkman)
This over-the-top story about arguing and making up again starts slowly, with an all-too-familiar fight between siblings, and builds to a joyous, crashing crescendo as friends, family, neighbours and complete strangers annoy and irk each other, learn to overcome and even appreciate their differences, and band together in a rollicking, ever-moving parade of friendship-building.
Utterly without platitudes or corniness, "And to Think That We Thought That We?d Never Be Friends" is a grand tale of the joys of friendship that reminds kids how negligible our petty disagreements are in the greater scheme of things, presented in a highly enjoyable story for reading aloud.
