Leon And Bob by James Simon
Bob is Leon's best friend. He shares Leon's room. Everywhere that Leon goes, Bob goes too. Then one day a boy moves in next door.
"An elegant book.. The illustrations are unsentimental and graceful and the story survives rereading. The last line makes my son smile each time he reads it." The Observer; "A delight... It tackles the subject of imaginary friends with delicacy and respect... The twist at the end is both satisfying and magical. A book to be treasured." Junior Education; "Sunlight shines into all the pictures, creating a feeling that life is good and full of possibilities." The Daily Telegraph; "As always, James has something to say to parents as well as children." Time Out
