本書透過翻頁與鏤空設計，講述 Dog 和 Cat 原本相安無事地住在隔壁，卻因一場誤會而心生嫌隙，決定在花園中間築起一道牆。牆越蓋越高，看似分隔了空間，也放大了彼此的不滿。直到一隻好奇的兔子探出頭來，新的朋友帶來新的問題，也悄悄改變了情勢。最後，磚頭被賦予了不同用途，花園重新成為共享的所在。本書以簡潔故事結合巧妙機關，引導孩子在閱讀與操作之間，感受衝突、界線與和解的可能性。Dog and Cat were happy living next door until a misunderstanding caused a real kerfuffle! Now they can't stand each other any longer, so they start to build a wall between their gardens. The wall goes up and up and up. One day a funny rabbit pops its head over. But whose garden will this new friend play in? Here's another cause for chaos between neighbors! Finally a better idea for how to use the bricks finds three happy friends sharing the garden after all--until some pigs move in next door . . . . From the creator of sensational lift-the-flap books about fairy tales and adventures comes a delightfully simple story about getting along with friends, which doesn't put the lid on pandemonium.
