Who's next door?

Kishira, Mayuko. (Author). Takabatake, Jun. (Added Author).

Chicken is thrilled when he finds out someone new has moved in next door. His quiet house deep in the woods can be lonely sometimes, and it would be so much fun to have a friend! But Chicken never catches so much as a glimpse of his neighbor, despite many days spent waiting, pacing, and knocking on his door. As it turns out, his neighbor, Owl, has been doing the same thing, yearning to meet Chicken, only he's been doing it at night. It's not until after the two exchange notes and mix up plans for a visit, each using his own definition of "tomorrow," that they meet fortuitously and find a creative way to enjoy each other's friendship despite their different schedules

Excerpt

Who's Next Door?

Deep in the woods, there are two houses. Chicken lives in the house with the red roof. No one lives in the house with the blue roof. Chicken wakes up every morning at sunrise. He eats breakfast and reads the paper. He eats lunch and takes a nap. He eats a snack and goes for a walk. He eats dinner and gets ready for bed. By sundown, Chicken is sound asleep. One morning, Chicken steps outside – and what a surprise! It looks like someone has moved in next door.
