Their friendship develops in this way, each of them learning from the other.

The author has written this story with inspiration from a real dog and cat. The illustrations are gorgeous and beyond charming, and they capture the feelings of Diva and Flea precisely. The story setting of Paris gives a refreshing ambiance. This is a good and fun chapter book for elementary-aged kids.
