Just You and Me by Bill E. Neder illustrated by Jeremy Tugeau I had no friends at school. The kids clustered in groups. They ran and roared, but I never played in the groups. Mom said, “Make a friend at school.” Dad said, “Make a friend at school.” So I did make a friend-a snow friend. My snow friend was Bob. How did I make my snow friend Bob? It was a big job! I gathered snow into balls. Then I sat a ball on a ball, on a ball! I got a pot for a hat. Then I got a mop. My snow friend Bob was my one friend at school. We played a lot. I could jog, and Bob watched. I could hop, and Bob watched. I sat at my desk, and Bob watched. What a friend Bob was! The kids gathered to see my snow friend. Some wandered over to look. Some raced over. They all loved Bob a lot! They said, “How did you make that snow friend? It is amazing!” One kid said, “Come and be in my group!” Then all the kids said, “No, play in my group!” I played and played in all the groups. It is hot now...
