Toot & Puddle by Holly Hobbie 1997The best of friends have different ideas of what is fun. Even though Toot and Puddle love being together, they take time to pursue their own adventures. Puddle is a homebody that immerses himself in the country setting of Woodcock Pocket. Toot is always anticipating his next adventure across the globe. As Toot sets off on his journey, he always remembers to send Puddle postcards.
Holly Hobbie's beautiful illustrations take us into the emotions that separation from a friend can bring. Even though they support each other's differences, Toot and Puddle always look forward to being together again.
This story about being a great friend, and not forgetting to be yourself, is a wonderful reminder for children and adults.
Appropriate for ages 4-8
