BINK & GOLLIE by Kate DiCamillo and Alison McGhee


"Bink & Gollie" by Kate DiCamillo and Alison McGhee is the story of two best friends who are quite different. Bink is carefree; Gollie is cautious. Bink is impatient; Gollie is structured. But with their differences in personality, these friends learn to compromise in whatever situation they find themselves in. Illustrator Tony Fucile's art is fun and captures the personalities of each girl. This book is a great story to teach tweens on what a compromise is, and the relationship between Bink and Gollie shows how two different individuals can become the very best of friends. You can find this book in Juvenile section under J DIC.
