There are few rivalries across history that are quite as formidable as CATS vs. DOGS. In this fully illustrated joke book, they go head-to-head-with a twist or two that may give you...paws. Presented in tête-bêche format (read-from-both-sides), the first half of the book consists of cat jokes told by a recurring cast of dogs-What do you call an insect in a cat's bathroom? A litterbug! But, flip the book over to start from the other side, and it becomes a book of dog jokes told by cats: What's the difference between kibble and a heavy mist? One is dog food, and the other is fog, dude! In the middle spread, the casts of cartoon dogs and cats come together for a midbook finale of, believe it or not, shared giggles, snorts, and guffaws. The comic-book-style illustrations throughout offer added layers of humour, funny visuals, and wisecracking characters who don't just tell the jokes, but comment on and react to them, too.
