Publisher's Synopsis
Don't need friends, don't need 'em at all, grumbles Rat each day as he makes his morning rounds of the junkyard, searching for scraps. Ever since Rat's best friend, Possum, moved away, Rat has been too lonesome and grumpy to enjoy anybody else's company. But one day, a dog moves in -- a dog who's even grouchier than Rat. It's a friendship made in junkyard heaven, but it will take a bitterly cold winter and an act of surprising generosity to turn the battling duo into the dearest of chums.
