Review by School Library Journal Review

K-Gr 1-Langdo has created colorful, cheerful new illustrations for Minarik's Cat and Dog, originally published in 1960. The text seems a bit dated as Dog threatens to make a catball, a catcoat, and a catpie out of the feline, and Cat cautions the pup against playing in water and roaming the garden, but finally the two pets happily dig up bones together until they are called in for dinner. Today's emerging readers will find more fun and better use of language in Alyssa Satin Capucilli's "Biscuit" series (HarperCollins) and Mary Labatt's "Sam" books (Kids Can).-Laura Scott, Farmington Community Library, MI (c) Copyright 2010.

Review by Horn Book Review

Woof! Woof! / Off the bed, / Cat, Cat."" A repetition-infused verbal sparring match between Cat and Dog belies their underlying mutual affection, as revealed at book's end. This edition features new art that deftly captures key fantasy images, as of Dog's grisly if idle threat to turn Cat into a catpie. (c) Copyright 2010.
