Patrick and Flippa are best friends-they love watching clouds together. Every day, Flippa dives for their dinner and makes sure that Patrick's tummy is full of fish . . . so why does he always have that empty bear feeling? Is it because Flippa's always in charge?
The water might be ICY, but this story is full of WARMTH and LAUGHTER.
