You Are Not My Friend by Daniel Kirk

You Are Not My Friend by Daniel Kirk

When two friends—a sock monkey and a plush toy dog—get into an argument during playtime, Monkey gets his feelings hurt and proclaims, “You are not my friend!” But when he takes his ball to find someone new to play with, he quickly learns that maybe he hasn’t been a very good friend, either.Bestselling author/illustrator Daniel Kirk uses bold and humorous illustrations to convey the important message that sharing and other acts of friendship are two-way streets.Praise for You Are Not My Friend, But I Miss You "Kirk’s skillfully paced mix of vignettes, close-ups and long shots guide readers smoothly through this emotional odyssey." --Kirkus Reviews "His frequent use of bold, large-scale drawing captures Monkey’s equally outsize temperament, while the emphatic, minimal text is subtly poignant and supremely performable." --Publishers Weekly

The digitized pen-and-ink illustrations add depth and texture to the storyThe series of gracefully crafted spreads eloquently portrays the ups and downs of Monkey’s emotional journey. Young readers will identify with the plush, huggable characters and sympathize with Monkey as he struggles to sort out his feelings. -- Linda L. Walkins, Saint Joseph Preparatory High School, Boston, MA * School Library Journal *
...children will relate to Monkey's epiphany that it takes two to share. -- Kara Dean * Booklist *
