The Kerfuffle by Clotilde Perrin tells the story of Dog and Cat, who were content neighbours until a misunderstanding sparked a real kerfuffle. Unable to tolerate each other anymore, they decide to build a wall separating their gardens. The wall rises higher and higher.

One day, a funny rabbit pokes its head over the wall. The question arises: whose garden will this new friend choose to play in? This leads to further chaos between the neighbours. However, an excellent idea for reusing the bricks results in three happy friends sharing the garden once more—until some pigs take up residence next door...

From the creator of sensational lift-the-flap books about fairy tales and adventures comes this delightfully simple story about getting along with friends, while still allowing for a little pandemonium.
