After Hurricane Katrina decimated New Orleans, many animals were left homeless, hungry and on their own. That was the case for a dog and cat who wandered the streets together for months until they were rescued and taken to a shelter by a caring construction worker. At the shelter the two were named Bobbie and Bob Cat by workers who noticed both had bobbed tails. But these two friends had a carefully guarded secret as well. This is truly an amazing story of survival and the bonds of friendship between a very special cat and dog. (Pennsylvania Young Reader's Choice Award nominee, 2011)
