This is an adorable first day of Kindergarten tale of (Baby) Bear and his friend (Goldilocks) Lolly, because as the front flap points out they have quite a bit in common and thus make a great pair for friends . The illustrations are great and vivid in a fairy tale woodland. All in all a good silly book on friendship; it is all that truly matters.
