This book is in the following series:
"Slack renders both roomies and the simple speech-balloon dialogue...with blocky minimalism, comically contrasting Clem's steady, grave air with Shorty's exaggerated gestures and broad emotions."--Kirkus Reviews
"Vibrant, blocky digital illustrations with cartoonish exaggerations and textural touches expressively depict calm Clem and excitable Shorty, while the animated text amusingly captures curiosity, anticipation, imaginative play, and impatience."--Booklist
"Wrapped in humor and understanding, this enjoyably highlights the spirit and meaning of friendship."--Booklist
"Fans of Mo Willems's "Pigeon" books and the "Elephant and Piggie" series will appreciate this unlikely pair of friends...A great read-aloud or beginning read-alone and a fun addition to most collections."--School Library Journal
"...a funny, sympathetic read."--Kirkus Reviews
