My Friend is Sad by Mo Willems

When Gerald the Elephant is sad, Piggie is determined to cheer him up, but finds after many tries that it only takes the simplest thing to change Gerald’s mood.

Liz says:

“For those of you already familiar with Don’t Let the Pigeon Drive the Bus, you will be thrilled to see a similar format in these graphic easy chapter books. Elephant and Piggie are paired together much like Frog & Toad and Henry and Mudge in these fun and meaningful stories about friendship and life.
