Friends. Enemies. And friends again! This is a story of two friends. Rat and Roach. They get along great! Except when Rat makes a mess . . . Or Roach cooks too fancy . . . Or Rat HUGS TOO TIGHT!! In fact, why are these two friends? Rat and Roach aren’t so sure either, but they’re more unhappy when they aren’t friends. Here is a book that shows friendship in a whole new, wonderful, hilarious light.
David Covell was a snowboarding bum before moving from Maine to New York. He now lives in the East Village, is a freelance graphic designer, and escapes regularly to the Catskills for his own dose of nature.
Praise for Rat and Roach Friends to the End by David Covell:“Engaging text [and] bold illustrations…Rat and Roach [is] unusually ugly—and wonderfully appropriately so.” —New York Times Book Review"In the fine tradition of A. M. Monson’s Wanted: Best Friend (Dial, 1997) or Carolyn Crimi’s Don’t Need Friends (Doubleday, 1999) … Covell tells this familiar story with unusual visual and verbal humor and a delightfully caustic lack of sentimentality. His artwork—pictures, font, layout, down to the most minute detail—is well worth a bunch of perusals." —School Library Journal
