Publisher's Synopsis
After making many photo books about adventures they have had over the years with their grandchildren, the Coopers decided to publish their first illustrated children's book. While growing up, the Coopers remember people quoting that old adage, "Don't judge a book by its cover." In Zac and Kat, A Rough Road to Friendship, it is proven that preconceptions of others are often faulty. If we can rid ourselves of the ingrained social and cultural stigmas, there is the possibility of finding new friends and productive relationships.
In this delightful tale, children witness the making of an unlikely friendship between a dog and a cat. By using a pair of characters that children "know" are natural adversaries, Zac and Kat introduces young readers to the idea that established norms and expectations can be questioned. If you take a second look, you just might meet your best friend.
