Dog and a Cat Collection

The Tale of a Dog and a Cat is dedicated to all children. The first part was published in the Christmas supplement of Lidové noviny on Christmas Eve 1927. After the response to the supplement, the author added several more stories and prepared them for book publication. The book was first published in 1929 by the publisher Otakar Štorch-Marien. The Tales of a Dog and a Cat by Josef Čapek are among the basic works of Czech literature for children. They later turned them into short films.
