"Agnes is new to town and wants to make friends, so she invites some girls in her class to a fancy tea party. When there is a knock at the door, she expects to see them--not Dave from next door. This isn't "The invitation says plus one. This means you need to bring a friend. And since you don't have a friend with you--goodbye." Agnes is sure that will be the end of that, but Dave is persistent, and before long he's bringing one friend after another as his plus one. But as the minutes pass and the other guests don't show up, Agnes is left with nothing but her tea set, watching Dave and his friends play tag. She works up the nerve to ask if she can join in and receives a resounding yes-- and when the original guests arrive (late because of soccer practice) everyone heads inside for tea, no species excluded."--Publisher marketing.

Rezensionen
"Plus One is a funny but charged story about the wrongheadedness of exclusion. . . ." Shelf Awareness

"Treading a fine line between slightly heartbreaking and sweetly funny, this story is sure to spark discussions about kindness and inclusion. A solid purchase for picture book collections, and a strong choice for story hours about friendship and empathy." School Library Journal

"The story is engaging, as are the warmly colored, comical illustrations, hand-painted in acrylic on hardboard. A good embedded lesson on the rewards of being inclusive." Booklist

"A fun reminder to be open to friendship." Kirkus Reviews

"Hare proffers this tale of inclusion with a light touch, gently underscoring the message that it s good to be open to new friends." Publishers Weekly
