Praise for the original picture book edition of Best Friends for Frances: If the illustrations capture the quality of the ingenious and beguiling heroine, the story captures the very essence of children and their shifting, frankly egocentric, relationships. -The Saturday Review

Scorned by Albert, Frances arranges a very special picnic, which ends with everyone being happy as best friends. This episode contains some choice Frances songs and is marked by the authors usual deft handling of a real problem of childhood. -Childhood Education
