All reviews are my own.

Henry Hodges Needs a Friend is a big hit with my son, Gavin. Every silly pet Henry would think of would make my son smile. He would point at the colorful illustrations and laugh. The book teaches that each friend is unique and you always need friends. The book is told in a cute little rhythm to hold your children's attention.
