In the Woods

This book has three great stories. I really like how it seems like they are all different tales, but it’s more like one big book than different stories because the same characters are throughout the book. The same friends all help each other in every story. The first one is about a horse named Ollie who is sad because all of his friends have turned into unicorns, but he is still a horse. So his best friends find him beautiful wings and a horn to surprise him. In the other stories about Lionel and Red, other friends help. It’s really nice to help friends in need.

The pictures in this book are very beautiful. They are so different from anything else I’ve ever seen. There are only six colors used, but the pictures are just so magical. And the colors are different from real life. For example, the tree trunk is blue and the lion is green. At end of each story it says, “BE HAPPY NOW!” The characters have wanted something, and their friends just gave it to them, so they should be happy now. This book would be very nice for children who are learning how to behave because it is very nice to help friends.
