“Scotty McDog Meets Kitty O’Cat” is a story of a dog whose best friend suddenly is gone. He is sad, lonely, and even angry. A kitten is brought into the house, much to his chagrin, and the darn thing is a pest. By then end, these two are fast friends. I hope every reader finds something in my story. When so many must relocate for financial or other reasons, it is timely to reflect on the value of friendships--even cross-generation, cross-nation, cross-gender, cross-color, cross-species friendships!A bonus simple song sheet is included, so you can sing along with the story!
