It Is Okay

"Charming, whimsical." — The New York Times

"A stellar story of pals weathering ups and downs with aplomb." — Kirkus Reviews (STARRED REVIEW)

A simple yet sensitive tale about friendship and acceptance.

Goat and Bunny are best friends. They love meeting up to eat canned grass together. But when they share coffee, a hike, or dinner at Bunny’s burrow, Goat and Bunny realize that they aren’t as similar as they thought. Can these friends learn to accept each other’s personalities and preferences—even if it means changing their plans?

With playful art and gentle humor, It Is Okay reminds young readers that kindness and respect are essential for friendship. Differences don’t have to stop friends from spending time together—instead, they can spark whole new kinds of fun.
