Marie-Louise Gay.
Houndsley loves a snowstorm when everything becomes hushed, "almost like music." Catina, however, frets that their concert might be canceled that evening. Eventually, Catina comes to appreciate the beauty of the storm, with the help of Houndsley's imagination. Delicate watercolor, pencil, and collage illustrations highlight the quiet of the snow, while their gentle humor brings out the dog-and-cat friendship.
