New Friends
Toucans in the rainforest, dolphins in the harbor, giraffes on the savanna. Buddy and Luna make a friend everywhere they go — friendship sounds the same in every language.
The Doggone Adventures of Buddy & Luna
One Doggone Adventure at a Time™
Buddy and Luna are two real-life best friends — and the authors of these books. Every story is told through their eyes and noses. In every book they travel to a new country, where they meet animals of every kind — dogs, cats, birds, turtles, dolphins, giraffes, even elephants — taste foods they've never sniffed before, and discover how life looks, sounds, and celebrates in a different part of the world. And in every adventure, something goes wrong before it goes right — because the best stories are about two little dogs with big hearts overcoming the odds together.
Kids come away with more than a story: new words and new vocabulary in two languages. Every Doggone Adventure is bilingual — English side by side with Spanish, Portuguese, French, and more — with matching coloring & activity books and read-along audiobooks that tell each story in both languages.

Buddy and Luna's very first Doggone Adventure takes them to Rio de Janeiro! Together they bounce to samba drums, try coconut water on Copacabana's wavy mosaic beach walk, ride the cable car up Sugarloaf Mountain — and when Buddy's brave nose gets them lost, a tiny Yorkie named Malu helps two best friends find their way back. A story about curiosity, courage, and asking for help.
