Whenever antagonistic Red Cat and Blue Cat cross paths, "it was NOT good. Not good at all." But they are really just envious of each other's traits. The opposites eventually learn to get along (and accept themselves) by taking a walk in the other's shoes. The succinct text is quirky, and the primary-color-saturated illustrations ably express the cats' antics and bouncy movements.
