Young children will root for the three friends, enjoy the mild suspense and delight in the very satisfying ending. As gentle and unassuming as Oliver, this story thoroughly charms." <p/> <br>FROM <i>BOOKLIST</i> <br>"In her debut offering, Chase effectively captures how friendship warms the heart. . . . An excellent story for little ones at bedtime and for sharing anytime with beginning readers." <p/> <br>FROM <i>PUBLISHERS WEEKLY</i> <br>"Chase's crisp, chipper narration never attempts to manipulate readers' feelings, and her restraint, combined with her subtly expressive characters and the elegant prettiness of her watercolor and ink drawings, lends the book a distinctly British lilt that inoculates it against treacliness. The "Awww" that will all but inevitably accompany the final scene--a rousing game of pirate pretend play--is thoroughly deserved." <p/> <br>FROM <i>SCHOOL LIBRARY JOURNAL</i> <br>"An adorable elephant, a sweet-faced rabbit, and a pudgy little owl play hide-and-seek in the forest. . . . The pen-and-ink and watercolor illustrations are muted and soft, and the text is spare and sweet. A quiet testament to friendship and creative problem solving." <p/> <br>FROM <i>SHELF AWARENESS</i> <br><b>"</b>This charming tale of friendship will have children and parents eager for more from first-time author and artist Kit Chase."<br><p/><br></br><p><b> About the Author </b></p></br></br>Kit Chase is a freelance artist and writer who is perhaps best known for leaving behind trails of broken pencils, eraser fragments, chewed pens, and scraps of scribbled paper.
