Fritz likes rose hip ice cream on warm days and cream of chestnut soup on cold ones, and most of all he likes time to himself, quiet time to do a great many things or nothing at all.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eOne morning Fritz decides to spend a whole day being more like Pip: berryball in the morning, a swim in the puddle pond, bubbles in the violet patch. It is a lot of fun and, as it turns out, a lot of work. Being that social is exhausting when quiet is what actually fills the tank. The story lands somewhere warm and true about temperament and friendship, and about the difference between stretching toward someone else and staying yourself.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eGarrity-Riley fills every spread with mixed-media detail, tiny mushroom homes and woodland flowers worth slowing down for.
