With a mere 19 words (yo appears twice, yes six times) the Caldecott Medal winner Chris Raschka presents a spirited conversation on a city sidewalk that is, in itself, a complete drama. Two boys meet as strangers. One hails the other, who is cautious. The first persists. The other responds. Gradually they begin to talk and end up as friends.
