Illustrated by
Giselle Potter.
Pekoe is a large yellow puppy with energy and enthusiasm to spare, and Olive is a small older dog with a much more subdued outlook on life. Readers follow the good friends on four short walks outside that showcase their differences and commonalities. Davis's deadpan text is the perfect foil for Potter's expressive art, which captures the ups-and-downs of canine life and friendship with understanding and humor.
