My love the message about alone time and friends This book is a fun story with great illustrations!!! My 3.5 year old really enjoys this book.

But I think there is a good message in this book for him -- that it is fun to spend time alone but also fun to share activities with friends. This book also seems perfect for the kid who gets annoyed by a younger sibling wanting to follow him or her around.. .5 year old really enjoys this book.
