Captain Cur & Wonder Flea is unique new direction in children's illustrated literature. With charm, class, and a touch of erudition, it tells a story of values, priorities, and the meaning of tolerance in a manner understood by children, appreciated by adults, and enjoyed by both. It is a story of the unlikely alliance between a dog and his flea, which leads to mutual respect, the essential grounds of true friendship. The book's lighthearted rhymes open with Dog, a homeless mutt with little self-confidence. Lovelorn and alone in his darkest hour, he is saved from destruction by Wonder Flea-who has, unbeknownst to Dog, been his friend all along. The unlikely pair adventure together throughout Brooklyn, meeting other animals and performing feats of derring-do along the way. By day's end, Dog, who renames himself Captain Cur, will need to find self-respect enough to overcome the biggest obstacle of his dog's life.
