What do you do when your best friend is always getting into tight situations...you follow along, of course.  This is the second delightful book about Patchy Dog and Calico Cat and their wonderful, if not mischievous, adventures. Follow Patchy and Calico on their summer vacation...Honestly, I didn't get this book (only) because I have a 4 year old son, who fell in love with the best friends...I have to confess, that I too fell in love with them. My son and my favorite story was Back to School. He liked the fact that Patchy could draw and I loved how the story recapped their adventures and showed that even a dog and cat were "smart" enough to go to school. Don't get me wrong...the adventures with the crab, the bear and the circus were great, too. AND the best part is that there's a lesson that kids remember, but don't even know that they are being taught something. I also like the questions at the end of each story (even though my son is too young to understand them) it gives the parent a chance to talk about the story and gage the child's comprehension.If you haven't tried Patchy Dog and Calico Cat's adventures...these books are a MUST read for any age.
