Overview

This delightful children's book, written and illus. by Tomi Ungerer, tells the story of Mr. Zeno Krall and his wife Colza, an expectant cat couple. But when their baby is born, to their great surprise he is a dog! "How can it be? What shall we do?" he asks his wife. "Love him, he is ours," she replies, and they welcome their new son, Flix. Growing up as a dog in Cattown is a tough experience for Flix. But he learns to climb trees and do all the things cats do, while his godfather teaches him to speak Dog, and do all the things dogs do. Flix's ability to be at home in both worlds proves a big advantage when he races up a tree to rescue a poodle from a burning building. When he later marries this same poodle, their first child turns out to be -- to their surprise -- not entirely as expected!
