My Review:
This is a cute story about getting homesick and having some new friends. This would be a cute story having the stuffed animals to accompany it while it is read, seeing it is about stuffed animals. I actually expected the book to be more about the journey getting home, but it was more about being welcomed back home.
I'm always looking for new books for my boys and we have a TON of stuffed animals, so this sounds like a fun one to check out!
