Praise for Goodbye, Friend! Hello, Friend!

"Doerrfeld is carving a lovely niche with sweet, deeply attuned books for the littlest audience . . . There are tears, then letters, and then, of course a new friend. All along Doerrfeld's wonderfully soft, jaunty illustrations convey the spark and vulnerability of the preschool years." —New York Times Book Review

"Tender and observant, this is a book that will inspire readers ages 3 to 7 to notice the hello-goodbye moments in their own lives." —Wall Street Journal

* "We've seen treatments of friendship loss before, but this turns that story into a tender and friendly exploration of life's balance, deftly escalating from matter-of-fact changes to harder ones." —The Bulletin of the Center for Children's Books, starred review

"From the author of The Rabbit Listened, this suggested first purchase title speaks to social emotional learning, views the passage of time and change through the eyes of a child, and allows a glimpse at the ups and downs of growing up. For young readers in all libraries." —School Library Journal

"A warming study of friendship, loss, and new friendship." —Kirkus
