Problem with Pierre, The

The differences between Bertram and his neighbour Alan were never a problem until a fussy cat entered the equation! Alan and Betram are next-door neighbours. They are also best friends.

When Bertram gets a cat, called Pierre, he is dismayed to find that Pierre prefers it at Alan3s house.

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.
