Description: |
This charming depiction of dealing with anger via exercise cleverly offers a participatory feature. When friends Bobby (a panda) and William (a brown, whiskered dog) have an argument, William tells Bobby to "Go on! Just get on your bike and leave!" Filled with anger, Bobby does. He rides through town and into the countryside, through other towns and by a canal. As each scene changes, he grouses resentfully about "buffle-brained," "pudding-headed" William and asks himself, "Where should I go now?" Of course, he ends up back at William's house, the anger gone, full of the sights he's seen and ready with plans to ride with his friend the next day.
With mesmerizing illustrations, this vibrant book offers a sensitive, realistic portrayal of a conflict ... and a compromise. |
