This is a fun rhyming book. The best part of this book is probably the illustrations. There is so much to talk about. First off the dog is done in paint while the cat is done in colored pencil. And the two are separate, but together on the page. As the story progresses, or the animals find safety, their art forms merge creating a third form of art within these books. The way the author has welded the art in this book to tell a story of the feelings of the animals is masterful. This book is an only beautiful, but it hits on so many emotions besides just the happy-go-lucky rhyming pattern of the story.
