Shibu and Dottie are as different as cats and dogs—but maybe they have more in common than they think in this charming sequel to the international hit Shibu’s Tail!

Shibu has a lot of friends and they have a lot in common. It’s a lot of fun! But then comes ... Dottie. Dottie is a DOG and she does things a bit differently. She barks instead of purrs. She tears up boxes instead of sitting inside them. She spends a lot of time ... digging? 

Shibu isn't sure about a new friend, especially one so different, but he can’t help feeling like Dottie’s love for life is a lot like his own. Could this new friend actually become his best pal?

Tess Thomas is a writer living in Hoboken, New Jersey. She started her storytelling career at the age of four, when she would dictate tales about her imaginary friends, Sami the cat and Doodie the dog, and send them to her grandparents. Her first book, Shibu’s Tail, earned four starred reviews, appeared on multiple best-of-year lists, and has been published in over a dozen different languages. Tess’s favorite part of being an author is visiting schools, libraries, and bookstores to connect with young readers. She loves french fries, her kids, and her husband (sometimes in that order). 

Kamwei Fong is a contemporary artist whose series The Furry Thing began in 2009. His furry creations have since travelled the world, earning awards at the Salon des Beaux Arts in Paris and appearing in international art fairs, solo exhibitions, and art collaborations across Europe, Asia, and the United States. At home, he lives with his cats, who generously provide both chaos and creative inspiration.
