A trio of “cheerfully screwy stories . . . delivers a steady stream of laughs” in this Geisel Honor Winner from the author of the Fox Tails books (Publishers Weekly). In this silly sequel to Snail and Worm, the dynamic duo are back for more fun and giggles in three new comic shorts brimming with quirky humor and unflappable friendship. At turns clever and sweet, these laugh-out-loud stories are perfect for readers coming out of their own shells and making the transition between picture books and chapter books. “Themes of acceptance, self-love, and appreciation make this an excellent choice for early readers or a one-on-one storybook for older prereaders.”—Booklist “The friends’ banter is light and humorous, and their foibles and misunderstandings will provoke laughter as surely as the expressive, multimedia cartoon illustrations will.”—Kirkus Reviews

About the Book: Two Stories About Equal Friends contains two stories. The first story, Equal Friends, is narrated by a school quarterback, Joshua, whose best friend is Justin. Joshua points out early on that his friend Justin has Down syndrome but continues the story to reflect how insignificant the syndrome is in their relationship. Joshua successfully points out the many ways in which he and his friend are alike and makes it clear to the reader that Justin does not like to be considered "special". The story ends with a message that all people are equal. The second story, Don't Mind My Chair is a story about a young girl, Jessica, who visits her grandparents for a week long stay. This story would be ordinary except for the fact that Jessica has cerebral palsy, making it a challenge for some potential friends to include her in their games. The story entertains as it educates the reader with information about how to include someone with a physical disability into daily activities. Don't Mind My Chair takes the reader's attention from Jessica's wheelchair to focus on her charm and capabilities.
