Sidney and Carrie’s friendship is being put to the test. Can Lisa Thompson’s uplifting duo learn to compromise in time for their joint birthday party?

Best friends Sidney and Carrie are really excited about having a joint birthday party! But excitement turns to disappointment when they can’t agree about the invitations, the entertainment or even the kind of cake they’d like to have.

Will the birthday party be a disaster or can the two friends find a way to compromise that will make them both happy?

“I love these stories. They are misleading in their simplicity – they’re so skilfully written and explore critical issues, close to children (and their teachers!)’s hearts.” – Katie Livesey on Lisa Thompson’s Little Gems

"Thompson brings her powerful and empathetic storytelling skills to this clever, engaging story which looks at a friendship being put to the test, and teaches youngsters the fine art of compromise." – Lancashire Evening Post
