Description
How do two friends find each other?
Why choose this one, not another?
Are two friends just meant to be-
I for you and you for me?
Two pigeons fly through the city hoping to find a friend-but where do friends come from? In this brightly illustrated love letter to cities, the fine, feathered characters discover the magical, unlikely connections that happen best in the hustle and bustle of a big city.
