Paw and Pal meet for the first time and become best of friends after experiencing something scary together.

Forever Friends is the story of love and friendship between a boy and his dog. Fifteen-year-old Rob tells the tale while writing the biography of his Doberman, Ally, as his final English paper. He takes the reader on a ten-year journey of their lives together, tracing AllyA[a¬a[s transformation from a mischievous, carefree pup to the valiant and devoted protector she becomes. But a guy needs a break and dirt biking with his friends, Vinnie and Mike, sounds like a lot more fun than writing the paper. Here, the second part of the story unfolds: Rob and his friends come upon two suspicious men hiding something in a sand-dune cave in the desert, and they attempt to solve the crime. The story moves back and forth between the past (the biography written in first person) and the present (the adventure written in third person).

Manny, the little brown bear longs for a friend. But not just any friend. He longs for a Forever Friend. He wishes for a friend he can play with and laugh with, and dance and sing with. He wishes for a friend he can share all his happy thoughts and all his sad thoughts with. Find out what happens when Manny rescues a little white rabbit from a hunter's trap. Then follow them on their adventures as they happily explore their forest neighborhood. "He looked at his new friend with wonder and said, ?And I don't even know exactly WHY I was laughing!? ?Oh, ? she said, ?I was just so happy to be free and so relieved you didn't want to eat me that I just started laughing.? ?Eat you?! Oh, no! Oh, yuck! Oh, gross! No way!? said Manny Bear, in a very shocked voice. ?Yuck? What do you mean?.YUCK!? the little white rabbit asked in a huffy tone. ?Don't you think I would taste good? What's wrong with me? I am not gross or yuck!? Then realizing it might sound as if she were inviting him to have a taste she changed her mind. In a tiny voice, she said, ?Never mind. I?m sure I must taste just awful anyway.? The little white rabbit sat up and offered her tiny paw to Manny Bear. He took it very gently in his much bigger paw. She said, ?My name is Missy Rabbit and I am very pleased to meet you. Thank you for saving me.? Then they looked at each other and began to laugh all over again. By the time they finished laughing they were the best of friends. They were Forever Friends."
