Two cats, a stormy night and a brand new friendship are the simple elements that make up this delightful feel good tale. The two cats lead individual lives as do their boy and girl owners. But when the cats become trapped while sheltering from a storm, the subsequent search brings the children and their families together. Young children will delight in the rhymes, story and charming illustrations of an endearing book that tells of the consequence of one stormy night. In the most fun and entertaining manner we learn how even the most estranged can be brought together - it even has a delectable surprise ending!
