Notes

32 p. : col. ill. Boo is a gnu. The one and only BLUE gnu. Boo is unique - until he meets Hoo. Hoo is blue too, and he wants to be friends with Boo. But Boo doesn't want to be friends, he wants to be unique. Boo tries everything to make himself stand out - jumping in bushes, in mud, painting himself with berries. Nothing works quite as planned, and what's worse, Hoo does the same - Hoo wants to match Boo. Boo is frustrated. Then Hoo loses Boo, and Boo realises he'd much rather have a friend, because everything's much more fun with two. New Zealand author; New Zealand illustrator.
