Jonathan and Martha are two lonely worms that live on opposite sides of a tree. One day, a big juicy pear lands on the ground between them. Jonathan nibbles from the left, and Martha nibbles from the right ... and soon they are caught in a tangle! Using his signature style of eye-catching illustration and collage and simple narrative, Horácek weaves together a story that captures the development of friendship and love between two unlikely worms. A classic story that will teach children under 5 about the importance of sharing and the value of friendship. Simple narrative and catchy rhythm make this perfect for reading out loud.
