A little girl has found a best friend, a four-legged friend named Ben. They going on adventures full of imagination, creating a special bond full of love and happiness. Whether they are dancing, driving race cars, or walking on the moon, they are certain to have tons of fun!

"

E.D. Ellsworth, in a note to parents, said, "Through the eyes of a child, a dog's breed or past doesn't define their future. What matters is a lifetime of adventures and the power of possibility. A shelter dog can be an astronaut, circus performer, scientist, and race car driver. That dog can be your child's best friend.
