Bob the bear mostly likes to sit; if he's "feeling zany," he might go for a (slow) walk. His panda friend Jack surfs and rides roller coasters. As Bob and Jack play together, they prove that opposites attract and friendships may flourish. The two are fittingly depicted in the illustrations, with Bob's backgrounds simple and spare while Jack's are full of color.
