Edie’S Little White Lie cover

When Edie tells her best friend, Kay, that she loves her singing voice and how special it is, she isn’t expecting Kay to run off and enter a talent show that she hasn’t a hope of winning. Edie was only trying to cheer her up after Polecat Mac said how terrible Kay’s voice was (and it’s not good). Talent judges can be pretty cruel, and the audiences even worse. Will Kay blame Edie for her humiliation? Will their friendship even survive? Horace and Nim try to help out, but things look pretty grim for the well-meaning duck. This latest book in the Horace & Nim series is another gem, beautifully illustrated by Chantal Bourgonje, with a heart-warming story of friendship that children and parents alike will enjoy.

Beautifully illustrated by Chantal Bourgonje, with a heart-warming story of friendship that children ages 3-5 (and their parents) will enjoy and another storytelling gem for family, daycare center, preschool, elementary school and community library collections - Midwest Book Review --- This charming book provides much to think about such as relationships, friendship, white lies, resilience and expectations. The illustrations are delightful. I loved the queue of animals waiting for tickets. Highly recommended - The English Association --- a valuable lesson for youth. Those between the ages of four and seven will especially enjoy this meaningful text. - City Book Review
