Illustrated by
Bob Kolar.
The two titular pets live together and they fight like, well, cats and dogs--until one day they discover they can help each other, and they become best friends. Despite the pat resolution, the simply told tale exudes character and charm. Kolar's skillfully spare illustrations feature saturated watercolor figures with bleeded edges that give everything a fuzzy, energetic halo.
