Ah, friendship
This is a lovely picture book about a little girl who has lived in her neighborhood her whole life and knows its every detail. Then a new family moves into her building and they have a little girl too. Agnès longs to make friends with Anna, but something goes wrong and they never meet. Until they do and then the magic is wild and wondrous.

A fun tale of secrets, friendship and the magic in the world around you. It was a beautifully drawn book which really shows how changes can affect your world but then also make it so much better. I really loved this book.

When Anna moves into Agnes’s apartment block Agnes is very interested and wants to be friends. Anna always seems to be doing something else. One day they bump into each other and realise they both share the same child-like imagination and go on an adventure together. A nice story of friendship.

This was adorable!
I really loved the art style. The book is a wonderful story for younger kids and as an adult, I thought it had a great message for any reader.

A well-written book about a girl who is lonely. Another little girl moves into the neighbourhood, but their paths never cross, until one day they meet. It seems meant to be; the little girl's gloves match her friend's jumper. This shows children we tend to get on with folks who are similar and have the same tastes.
This book is a great read that depicts the excitement of anticipating a "first friendship" and teaches children the magic of joy to share.
The illustrations are playful and whimsical and capture the mood of the narrative.
I loved the ending of the story, which is a surprise. It suggests the friends enter a magical world of adventures together where anything seems possible.
The strength of this book is in its originality and how it teaches emotional truths. Children will relate to the characters in the story.
