Elvis & Romeo

Illustrated by David Soman

About The Book

From the bestselling creators of the Ladybug Girl series comes a picture book about the misadventures of two very different dogs who become unlikely friends.

Elvis loves to sleep and doesn’t like running around or playing hide and seek. He can’t wait to go the dog park and have a nice, quiet nap.

Romeo loves to rush and race around, howl, and fetch sticks. He can’t wait to go to the dog park and make a new friend.

Elvis and Romeo’s burgeoning friendship doesn't exactly get off to the most promising start when they meet. It seems like they have nothing in common. But little by little, these polar-opposite pooches may just become the closet of canines after all.
