For at være med i denne hundebog forsøger kaninen at bevise overfor de skeptiske hunde, at den også er en hund. Kan den lide at løbe efter en bold? Selvfølgelig! Kan den bruge hundeøjne til at tigge med? Absolut! Lugter den også gerne til høm-hømmere? Æhm … Kan vi vende tilbage til det senere? Kaninen besvarer efter bedste evne en række spørgsmål om hundes væsentlige egenskaber – men selvfølgelig er en kanin i sidste ende en kanin, ikke en hund. Det virkelige spørgsmål er, om det overhovedet betyder noget? Denne charmerende historie er skrevet udelukkende i dialog og med en herlig blanding af tør og fjollet, fnis-fremkaldende humor. Og en med den underliggende pointe, at det allervigtigste er venlighed og rummelighed. P.S: Prøv at lege historien med et par børn – dét er sjovt!

Together, they practise and practise until their duet is perfect. But when they audition, Bird is cast in the opera -- and Bear is not. Bear is filled with disappointment, but Bird comforts and reassures him, explaining that even though they won't sing together in the opera, they are still a perfect duet.
