                                                 The cloudspotter

His real name was Franklin. But everyone called him The Cloudspotter.

The Cloudspotter didn`t have many friends. It was just him and his clouds, always.

He would spend his days, all by himself, spotting...big clouds, squeaky clouds, sneaky pretend-they-can't-see-you clouds and angry clouds.

You see, The Cloudspotter didn`t just spot clouds. He spotted adventures in the sky. That way, he didn`t feel alone.

He could swim with giant jellyfish, drive racing cars, and be the KING OF THE CASTLE.

But one day everything changed. 

The Scruffy Dog came along. And she seemed to be looking for something, too. 

Was she after his clouds?

The Cloudspotter wasn`t happy. 

He wasn`t used to sharing his clouds with anyone.

But The Scruffy Dog didn`t seem to care.

Wherever the Cloudspotter went, that bothersome dog went too...no matter what time of day...or night!

Before long, she was even playing along in his adventures.

And that, the Cloudspotter decided, wouldn’t do at all. It was time for the Scruffy Dog to go.

The Cloudspotter put his plan into action...

And, at last, he was alone again.

He should have been happy. He should have been pleased. However, something just didn't feel right. 

The Cloudspotter was LONELY.

Could it be, he wondered, that The Scruffy Dog had been searching for something else? 

Something like...a friend! 

Because, everyone knows, Two Cloudspotters are better than one... Especially when you are BEST FRIENDS!
