Description

Diva, a small yet brave dog, and Flea, a curious streetwise cat, develop an unexpected friendship in this unforgettable tale of discovery.
For as long as she could remember, Diva lived at 11 avenue Le Play in Paris, France. For as long as he could remember, Flea also lived in Paris, France-but at no fixed address. When Flea fl neurs past Diva's courtyard one day, their lives are forever changed. Together, Diva and Flea explore and share their very different worlds, as only true friends can do.

Reviews

The occasional French word paired with DiTerlizzi's gorgeous illustrations work together to create an appropriately Parisian feel throughout. With a message that facing fear and getting to know someone new will open one's world, young readers will find much to love about Diva and Flea... An excellent chapter book. School Library Journal
