Won Ton and Chopstick: A Cat and Dog Tale Told in Haiku

By Lee Wardlaw; Illustrated by Eugene Yelchin

Publisher’s Synopsis: Won Ton has a happy life with his Boy, until…

Ears perk. Fur prickles. 

Belly low, I creep…peek…FREEZE!

My eyes full of Doom.

A new puppy arrives, and nothing will be the same.

Told entirely in haiku and with plenty of catitude, the story of how Won Ton faces down the enemy is a fresh and funny twist on a familiar rivalry.

Ages 4-8 | Publisher: Henry Holt and Co. | 2015 | ISBN-13:  978-0805099874
