First edition of this "picture-book tribute to the strength of childhood friendships" (Booklist). Quarto, original boards, illustrated. Boldly signed by Eric Carle. Fine in a fine dust jacket.

This deeply personal story for Eric is dedicated to his longtime wife, Bobbie, and it is their bond that inspired the book. For anyone who has ever scaled mountains to be with the one he loves, or for anyone who has simply known the love and joy of a great friendship, this book will strike a resonant chord. “This story of love and determination is illustrated with Carle's extraordinary signature artwork. For anyone who would cross rivers and scale mountains for a beloved friend, this warmhearted story will create an emotional response. Young readers will learn the value of friendship and its many challenges" (School Library Journal).
