Goodreads

This brightly illustrated picture book takes the reader on a journey with the Smurfs. Some of the Smurfs want to take their time and enjoy the journey, stopping to pick flowers and swim and other tasks that take them from the most direct path. Other Smurfs want to stick to the path and not be distracted so that they can get to their destination on time. The Smurfs realize that there is no right or wrong way to travel and both paths have their benefits. This book reminds the reader that compromises need to be made when you do things in a group, and that you need to listen to your teammates. The illustrations do a great job bringing the reader into the journey with these adorable blue creatures. Not a must have, but a fun book.
