I Miss My Friend And That’s Okay: Axel’s Story (Axel’s Story Series) by Shermaine Perry-Knights – Review by Jenni Bishop
I Miss My Friend And That’s Okay: Axel’s Story by Shermaine Perry-Knights
My rating: 4 of 5 stars
I Miss My Friend And That’s Okay: Axel’s Story is another heartwarming story, told from Axel’s perspective. Axel’s mum is a soldier in the army and their family moves around a lot. Due to this he misses his best friend Kerrington. Even though there are miles between them they keep in contact through writing letters to each other. I liked that the story is written in the format of letters.
The colourful illustrations bring the story to life as Axel shares his new experiences with his best friend whilst learning it’s okay to miss them just as it is ok to make new friends as well.
As with the first book, I Move A Lot and That’s Okay: Axel’s Story it was an interesting read and a valuable story for anyone moving at a young age.
