Bookroo's summary

Bobo, a well-behaved dog, takes on the challenge of teaching Bonkers, a mischievous kitten, some discipline. But Bonkers prefers chaos, shredding curtains and terrorizing goldfish. With Cat's help, Bobo tries to instill some order. Can this unlikely duo find harmony, or will Bonkers' antics prevail? Dive into a world of laughter and mischief as Bobo and Bonkers go head-to-head in a battle of wills.

From the publisher

Bobo is a very good dog. So when Mr. Hiccup needs someone to watch his new kitten, Bonkers, Bobo eagerly volunteers. He can’t wait to teach his young friend a few tried-and-true tricks. But Bonkers doesn’t want to sit or stay or fetch. He’d rather shred the curtains or terrorize the goldfish. Luckily, Cat knows all about cat things-like stretching, pouncing, and landing on his feet. But even with lessons, can a good dog really teach a bad cat how to behave? No matter which animal they prefer, all readers will love the silliness that ensues when this big dog and sweet (but naughty!) kitten go head to head.
