Recent picture book favorites about friendship have included A Visitor for Bear by Bonnie Becker and Brownie Groundhog and the February Fox by Susan Blackaby.
I thought Heart of a Samurai was an interesting look at a cross cultural friendship between a boy from isolationist Japan and the captain of a whaling ship. I think cross cultural friendships are a fascinating sub-genre of the friendship story. Anybody else have favorites in that area?
