Unlikely Friends Indeed - Paperback

by Jana Haertl (Author), Hilary Lambert (Illustrator)

Unlikely Friends Indeed is based on the true story of two very different dogs, each with their own special needs. Unbeknownst to his family, Buddy is slowly going blind, which puts him in physical danger. Bella was isolated from the real world as she was training to be a show dog, and when she fails out of the school she has trouble acclimating to life outside of the farm. Thrown together when they're adopted by the same family, Buddy and Bella don't understand each other. Through a series of misadventures, they learn to respect their differences, help each other out, and best of all become friends. Unlikely Friends Indeed is unique in that one side of the book is told from Buddy's perspective, and Bella's side of the story is on the flip side. The two stories meet in the middle as a reflection of their friendship coming together. Four to ten years old children will learn that dogs share the same feelings and fears that they sometimes have, and they will also delight in seeing how Buddy and Bella handle their problems together.
