From School Library Journal K-Gr 3—Telephone is a game that many children have enjoyed for generations—that is, when the game is intentional. But what about when something gets passed from person to person and it isn't fun for everyone involved? In Rosenberg's charming picture book, a girl is upset by what she perceives to be a derogatory comment coming from her best friend. James has never treated her unkindly before, which makes the comment even more surprising. Through some persistence, some patience, and even some luck, she finally unveils "what James said" and realizes how she misinterpreted it. This simple story will resonate with young readers who are learning to navigate the tricky waters of friendship. Myers's illustrations are created with "cheap ballpoint pen and watercolor." Don't let the description dissuade—they are simply delightful. Sprinkled with additional childlike embellishments, the realistic artwork shows great emotion and detail that will engage the intended audience. A clever read that can be shared with a group and is perfect for independent reading. VERDICT Witty, relatable, and a great purchase for children in any setting.—Megan Egbert, Meridian Library District, ID

By Janet Hamilton Summary: The narrator is in a fight with her best friend James because James said that she thinks she’s perfect. How does she know? Because James told Aiden, who told Hunter, who told Katie, who told Dante, who told Anna, who told Emily, Anna, and Declan, who told his little sister, who told the narrator. Now she is mad at James and won’t be friends again, even though he tries to find out what’s wrong and is extra-nice to her. At the end of the day, there’s a big art show. The narrator’s painting is on display. “It’s perfect,” says James. “That’s what I tell everyone.” The misunderstanding is uncovered, and the narrator is so happy, she doesn’t hear the art teacher announcing her name as the winner for Best in Show. When she finally gets her ribbon, she changes it to Best of Friends, which is what she and James are once again. Ages 4-8.Pros: An entertaining look at the damaging effects of rumors and gossip. The big, bright illustrations, decorated with children’s handprints and other artwork, complement the story perfectly.Cons: I think someone owes James an apology.

Cute story about the ups and downs of friendships By BrittyMama This is a sweet story of two best friends and a (one sided) misunderstanding between them that threatens their friendship. A rumor gets passed around that our heroine thinks she is perfect and she gives him the silent treatment. Poor James tries and tries to cheer up his friend, not realizing they are in a fight. After a while, the girl realizes she misses James' friendship. Most children will be able to relate to this story and the ups and downs that friendships have and that sometimes you shouldn't believe everything you hear.The illustrations are fantastic- very real and very expressive.

She loved it and so did her daughter, Iris, who will be born in September :-). The story of James makes you remember how hard it is to be a kid and what a joy it is to have a great friend when you are in need. I can't wait to read it again to Iris when she can see the pictures as well as hear the words!
