The book is lovely and could help friends help each other get past life’s rough patches. I like how the book encourages the reader to come up with their own ideas to help, too. After all, no two pairs of friends are the same! Some ideas/strategies are excellent for adults, too… and might even be helpful for a child to get past their own “blue” moods and days!

This book is simple in image and words, but they are very powerful. The use of, and lack of, color help to show how depression can make the world seem when you are, and are not, feeling that way. I like the simple list of ways to help. This book is a good step towards understanding this health issue, and removing the stigma of having it.

This is a simply wonderful story, beautifully illustrated, with a poignant and challenging message. I loved how accessible dealing with a depressed playmate became for Jenny, and how she helped Luka just by being there. This book should be required learning in schools, to help kids talk to others about their emotions, no matter how difficult it may seem.
