From the creator of I Just Ate My Friend, comes this warm and funny story about friendship, and its limits — or lack thereof.

'Benz, are we friends?'

'Yes, Baz, we are best friends'

'For how long?'

'For ever and ever.'

'But will they be?

'With her trademark humour, lightness of touch, and beautifully expressive illustrations, Heidi McKinnon explores friendship and its boundaries. And this one might even have a happy ending! (Maybe.)'  (Publication summary)
10 1 y separately published work icon Room on Our Rock Kate Temple , Jol Temple , Terri Rose Baynton (illustrator), ( trans. Nao Yoshihara with title おうちをさがして : みかたをかえてごらん ) Japan : Ushioshuppansha , 2019 12314708 2018 single work picture book children's

'Two seals are perched on a rock. When others need shelter, do they share it? Room on Our Rock celebrates the truth that there are two sides to every story. This clever picture book has one story that can be read two different ways. When read from front to back, the seals believe there is definitely no room on their rock for others. But when the book is read from back to front, the seals welcome others to shelter on their rock. A heartwarming story about sharing and compassion.' (Publication summary)
