Two Bobbies: A True Story of Hurricane Katrina, Friendship and Survival

This lovely little picture book written by Kirby Larson and Mary Nethery tells the story of a rescued dog and cat with an unusually close relationship.  Without dwelling on the devastation on this huge disaster, the authors manage to portray the serious situation many people and their pets were in when the hurricane hit and people were forced to leave their pets behind.  Piecing together the story of these two animals, who refused to be separated from each other, and discovering the reason they remained so close and devoted to each other makes a beautiful and satisfying story.  Animal lovers of all ages will enjoy this book.
