Three straight lines are the best of friends. But when one of them gets tired of standing straight all the time, anything can happen.Although the characters in this story are simple lines, readers will quickly identify with the relationships being portrayed in this story because of the friendship that they hold. Although they are the best of friends, when one of the lines tries to be different, his friends are very cruel and not understanding of what he is trying to do. This is a great story for the beginning of the school year as classrooms are trying to set up the social dimension of the classroom. A great classroom conversation and partner conversations can happen around what Mem Fox is trying to teach readers as they find out what happens to the line who tries to be a little bit different from the crowd.
