Bicycling to the Moon

Timo Parvela, illustrated by Virpi Talvitie

Purdy the cat and Barker the dog share a sky-blue house on a hill, although their temperaments differ sharply. Barker is active by day and tends to be responsible, while Purdy is more nocturnal, dreamy, and inclined toward far-reaching plans. In a set of illustrated episodes, the friends face situations that reveal their personalities and strengthen their bond. Their adventures range from tender moments to absurd efforts such as trying to fly to the moon, often ending with dry humor.
