The humorous hippos are back in town, discovering that there can be growth in even the best of friendships. Best friends George and Martha are back at their usual lively adventures, learning (along with young readers) that there are many ways to spend a good day with a friend.A man with a talent for friendship, James Marshall defined its very essence in his stories about the world’s two best friends. Each of these five brief tales is filled with humor, and James Marshall’s drawings are guaranteed to spark feelings of empathy, delight, and self-recognition.
My 2 and a half year old loves all the George and Martha books. Each book has 5 stories. They are compact and not overly wordy. G and M do activities that little kids will understand and relate to, like gardening or dancing or swimming, but they are also pretty amusing for adult readers (some are clever, eg, in one book, George sprays Martha with water, Martha is furious, at the end you don't actually see her spraying George back, but you know she does; others are very sweet, eg., Maratha's tulips wont grow in her garden, so George goes to the florist and buys flowers and puts the stems in her garden to cheer her up). They deal with different feelings (sadness, shame, happiness, frustration, etc, but not in a heavy handed way). Get them all!
