Summary:

"A long-haired guinea pig and a naked mole rat may seem like unlikely friends, but Otis and Peanut perfectly support one another's quirks and foibles.

In "The Haircut," Otis worries about getting a haircut because he's afraid he'll look so different he'll no longer be himself. In "The Swing," Peanut helps Otis come to terms with missing a beloved friend. And in "The House," Otis struggles to make his house a home with Peanut's help. These two endearing characters gently explore deep truths about life and human nature, while helping each other figure out their world"-- Provided by publisher.
