This is a story of a friendship between Fred the cat, “temporary stuck on the threshold of glory”, and his friend, Paw the dog. One day Fred decides to leave the Dump and hit the road, so Paw, like one's best friend would do, bravely accompanied him as far as the edge of the world. Together they wandered in the woods, waded across the creek. It was bad - or maybe good - luck that Paw got caught in a trap, but their strong friendship helped them endure the hardships, until finally they both found a home. Full and happy, they doze on the lawn, pondering a philosophical question: why is the season when spider webs drift in the air is called an Indian summer and not a cat summer or dog summer? This book was selected for the IBBY Honour List 2014.
