Review: Wilbie & Harry

Wilbie-and-Harry-Chambers-Sally-9781853408861

Wilbie & Harry
Written and Illustrated by Sally Chambers

Publication date: 2005
Publisher: Hinkler books Pty Ltd
ISBN: 978-1-7418-4181-7

Summary/Back cover:
Each week, best friends Wilbie and Harry put some of their pocket money into an old jar and when they have enough money, they buy themselves treats. One day they buy two raffle tickets and Wilbie’s ticket wins. Wilbie thinks the prize is his but Harry thinks it should be shared. A delightful story of friendship and sharing.

Review:
This is a lovely book about friendship written in simple language. It encouraged my 4 year old to ask questions about why Harry didn’t want to play with Wilbie anymore and this led to some interesting discussions about friendship. The illustrations are well done.

4/5
