»Zeige der Leere, was Leo war: dein bester Freund und sooo wunderbar!« Schildkröte Cleo und Hase Leo sind unzertrennlich. Obwohl sie sehr unterschiedlich sind, halten sie immer zusammen und helfen sich gegenseitig. Doch eines Tages ist Leo plötzlich verschwunden und lässt nur ein Loch zurück.

Eine herzerwärmende, tröstliche Geschichte über Freundschaft und Verlust. Und darüber, was bleibt, wenn der beste Freund geht. Ausstattung: Mit fbg. Illustrationen
