Houndsley and Catina and the birthday surprise / James Howe ; illustrated by Marie-Louise Gay.

Howe, James, 1946- (author.). Gay, Marie-Louise, (illustrator.).

Summary:

Houdsley is sad. Not because it is raining. Not because there are holes in his sweater. Not because he is bored. He is sad, he tells Catina, because he doesn't know when his birthday is. Then Catina realizes she doesn't know when her birthday is, either. All of a sudden, Catina is sad, too. But friends are very good at cheering each other up, and Houndsley and Catina are the very best of friends. So it won't be long before they each discover how a first-rate friend can brighten even the saddest of days. -- Provided by publisher.
