About this listen
Everyone always agrees with Junior, including the mysterious voice from across the valley.
“Junior Junior is the greatest in the world!” he shouts.
“Junior Junior is the greatest in the world!” the echo shouts back.
Until one day, a new girl moves in next door. A disagreeable, rude girl who doesn’t think Junior is right all the time. Unable to stand living next door to someone like that, Junior runs to the valley to meet his echo. But when being around someone who agrees with him all the time is less fun than he imagines, Junior must decide if a new friend is worth admitting he was wrong.
Critic reviews
★ "A valuable message that’s masterfully (and hilariously) conveyed without being heavy-handed...A quirky, relatable, and spectacular emotional journey." —Kirkus, starred review
“Astutely recognizing the universal allure of constant validation, Rex (Tumblebaby) employs a slyly comic narrative and sculptural digital drawings to nudge readers toward a greater truth: real reciprocity thrives on the perspective that everyone brings to the table.”—Publishers Weekly
"An entertaining story with an important lesson." —Booklist
“Rex smartly avoids didacticism in favor of employing humor to highlight the social skills of respectful disagreement and admitting when you’re wrong, making Junior’s plight both pertinent to our time and timeless.”—The Horn Book Magazine
