For fans of My Best Friend and Tough Guys (Have Feelings Too) ? a sweet story about what it feels like to have a best friend. A young boy shares what it feels like to have a best friend by telling his friend how much he likes his face and all the reasons why. His friend's face is so special he could spot it anywhere, even in a crowd of a million-gazillion people. He knows all the faces his friend makes, like his ?Silly Face? and his ?Holding-in-a-Fart Face.? And his friend knows all his faces, too, like his ?I'm-There-For-You Face.? Because when you have a best friend, you're never alone.
