The Friend Ship

(3) K-3 Illustrated by Chuck Groenink. Misunderstanding the phrase "friendship is out there," lonely Hedgehog captains her own boat to find a ship of friends. Animals she meets haven't seen "The Friend Ship," but each clambers aboard to join the search. Readers will understand before Hedgehog that she's already found real friendship. Some repetition of dialogue makes the story a good read-aloud; expressive illustrations in warm colors suit the tone.
