Friends
A picture book with attractive points depicting the sympathy of two creatures of the same age but with different paces of life
The child and the dog were born in the same year and have been together since the moment they opened their eyes to the world. Toddlers pass through the seasons, listen to each other in a language that others cannot understand, play together, fall asleep together, and grow up by staying by your side when you are sick. Nine, ten years old... Although the time the child spends at the desk and in front of the mirror increases, the dog's time is consistently directed toward the child. Fourteen, fifteen... Can a child and a dog still be together when they grow older? A moving picture book containing the meaning of living together and family.
