Mittens the kitten and Max the dog show that playtime is best when shared with friends!

Mittens the kitten wants to play with his friend Max the dog. But where is Max? Mittens looks for all of the places where he can usually find Max, including the doghouse and near his food bowl.

But Max is nowhere to be found, until Mittens discovers that Max has been looking for Mittens, too!

This My First I Can Read Book is perfect for shared reading with toddlers and very young children. Basic language, word repetition, and whimsical illustrations make this book just right for the emergent reader.
