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
