The amusing differences between dogs and cats are shown through clever rhyming couplets in this lively picture book by a renowned poet

From morning to night, a cat and dog who live together show their innate feline and canine natures. The dog barks at the delivery man while the cat barely notices; the dog runs out to play when the children return from school, while the cat prefers to keep napping on the soft couch. Neither gets the better of the other in their rhyming interchanges, and by day's end they realize that, despite being opposites, they are happier when they're together.
