This is a story about a Mother, Father, and their son named Brandon. Brandon's a shy little boy who doesn't have many friends. One of them is a girl named Sarah who he really likes. He lives far away from school in a cottage on a hillside. His family always has time for each other at the end of the day; and at night before bed Brandon's mother would always sing him a sweet little lullaby. In time however, Brandon's mother noticed that Brandon seems sad and lonely. So she convinces Brandon's Father to adopt a puppy for Brandon. Filled with anticipation, they go to the adoption center where a friendly old man greets them. He leads them to a fenced in circle where there were many puppies. Then one, a Beagle, runs into Brandon's arms. They decide to keep him and name him Buddy. Brandon and Buddy become the best of friends right away. They would play outside and catch fireflies together. But Brandon's Father warned him that if Buddy did anything wrong, he would be sent back to the adoption center. They were one big happy family until one day, it happened. When Brandon's mother was busy with house work, Buddy decided to chew up her precious rocking chair. One that her husband made for her when Brandon was a little baby. When Brandon's Father found out he was furious and ripped Buddy away from Brandon's arms to take him back to the adoption center. Will Brandon be able to convince his Father to keep Buddy?
