内容简介：    

五年级的Aki和母亲一起生活，家庭关系还算融洽。一天，Aki把她的唱片带到朋友Mocchi家去听，因为Mocchi家有唱片机。Aki有点嫉妒Mocchi和她的父母还有兄弟生活在一起。不幸的是，当他们听Aki的唱片时，Mocchi的弟弟Shin突然出现并刮伤了唱片。习惯了直言的Aki指责Mocchi没有阻止Shin，而Mocchi是一个不擅长向他人表达自己情感的人，为了弟弟一再地向Aki道歉。Aki很快对自己的言行感到后悔，她和Mocchi的友谊也开始变得紧张。  

这个故事是从Aki和Mocchi交替的角度讲述的。每个女孩的感受方式、各种误解，以及逐渐恢复的宝贵友谊，都被描绘出来。这本书通过两个性格和家庭完全不同的孩子之间的日常互动，探索了人们如何互动和相处，以及友谊意味着什么。  

Fifth-grade Aki lives with her mother, and the family gets along well. One day, Aki takes a record to her friend Mocchi’s house to listen to, because unlike Aki, Mocchi has a record player. Aki is a little jealous of Mocchi living in a house with two parents and her brother. Unfortunately, while they are listening to Aki’s record, Mocchi’s little brother Shin shows up and scratches it. Aki, who often speaks without thinking, blames Mocchi for not stopping Shin; and Mocchi, who often struggles to explain her feelings to others, apologizes repeatedly. Aki soon regrets her words and actions, but her friendship with Mocchi grows strained for a while.   

This story’s scenes are narrated from Aki and Mocchi’s alternating points of view. Each girl’s way of feeling things, her struggles, the various misunderstandings, and the gradual recovery of a valued friendship are portrayed with care. Using the everyday interactions of two children who have different personalities and families, this book explores how people can interact and get along together and what friendship means. The humorous illustrations contain many subtle details that are fun to discover.
