The Smeds and the Smoos by Julia Donaldson

Two different families discover the power of friendship

The red Smeds and the blue Smoos have been taught to keep apart, each group suspicious of the other. Young Janet and Bill are less interested in those old warnings, and their friendship develops into love. When they leave together, their families must venture beyond familiar territory and begin to discover more about the people they have refused to understand. Julia Donaldson's rhyming story and Axel Scheffler's imaginative illustrations turn prejudice and reconciliation into a colourful journey through space. The Smeds and the Smoos offers humour, memorable creatures and a gentle invitation to question inherited divisions, showing how affection can create possibilities that hostility has kept hidden.
