They are also best friends. They are also very, very different to one another. Bertram is extremely neat, and Alan is wildly messy. When Bertram gets a cat, called Pierre, he is dismayed to find that Pierre prefers it at Alan's house. Alan tries to help his friend out - giving him his old sheepskin coat, his chipped bowl and finally, his beat up old sofa. At last, Pierre and Bertram are happy, but Alan is not - he has no company and no sofa. Fortunately, Bertram comes up with a brilliant solution to the problem ... The Problem With Pierre plays with the format of the book, splitting each spread down the middle - the page on the left is Bertam's neat-as-a-pin living room, and the right hand page is Alan's homely chaos. When, at the end, Bertram knocks through the wall between the two houses, and puts the sofa in the middle, there is a coming together of content and format that is sure to delight readers young and old. 650 0 $a Neighbors $v Juvenile literature. $v Juvenile literature. 650 0 $a Friendship $v Juvenile literature. $v Juvenile literature. 650 0 $a Dwellings $v Juvenile literature. $v Juvenile literature. 650 0 $a Orderliness $v Juvenile literature. $v Juvenile literature. 650 0 $a Cats $v Juvenile literature. $v Juvenile literature. 650 0 $a Human-animal relationships $v Juvenile literature. $v Juvenile literature. 650 0 $a Neighbors $v Juvenile fiction. 650 0 $a Friendship $v Juvenile fiction. 650 0 $a Dwellings $v Juvenile fiction. 650 0 $a Orderliness $v Juvenile fiction. 650 0 $a Cats $v Juvenile fiction. 650 0 $a Human-animal relationships $v Juvenile fiction. 650 7 $a Cats. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst00849374 650 7 $a Dwellings. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst00899978 650 7 $a Friendship. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst00935174 650 7 $a Human-animal relationships. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst00963482 650 7 $a Neighbors. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01200293 650 7 $a Orderliness. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01047394 655 7 $a Pictorial works. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01423874 655 7 $a Juvenile works. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01411637 655 7 $a Animal fiction. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01982492 655 7 $a Picture books. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01726789 655 7 $a Animal fiction. $2 lcgft 655 7 $a Picture books. $2 lcgft 700 1 $a Hubbard, Suzanna, $e illustrator. 941 $a 1 952 $l SAPG074 $d 20220104014937.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=8A9CE1EC6A0711EC9CB354F147ECA4DB 994 $a Z0 $b LJWInitiate Another SILO Locator Search
