Written by Elissa Haden Guest
Illustrated by Christine Davenier
Iris and Walter are best friends. They have fun together watching stars in Walter’s tree house; walking home from school with Iris’s grandpa; and riding Walter’s horse, Rain. And they solve problems together. It’s Walter who first welcomes Iris to her new neighborhood, and it’s Iris who helps Miss Cherry find Walter when he gets lost on a field trip. Through thick and thin Iris and Walter know they can count on each other.
