Pearl Barley and Charlie Parsley by Aaron Blabey

This book is about two friends that are opposites. Pearl Barley is really up beat and energetic and Charlie Parsley is introverted and calm. After showing how different they are, the book asks how they could possibly be friends. Well as it turns out, Pearl's energetic nature cheers Charlie up when he's down, and Charlie's practical nature helps Pearl out. For example, at one point he puts mittens on her hands when she's cold.

It's a good book about how opposites can attract and how you don't have to be the same as someone to be their friend. The pictures are colourful and very expressive.
