Today Ben and Heart are going to the park.
Come on, Ben and Heart. Let’s go!
Ben and Heart ran to the car and sit in the back seat.
Woof! Woof!
Arf! Arf!
Ben and Heart stick their heads out the window.
They see people walking outside.
Woof! Woof!
Arf! Arf!
When Ben and Heart get to the park, they jump out of the car.
There are so many things to see and smell.

Ben sees a girl with a big green balloon.
Together, Ben and Heart walk to the playground.

Today was a good day.
The book's cover features my illustration but was not created by me.
Ben was playing with all his toys at home.
Ding, Dong!
Ben runs to the door.
It’s a big dog.
Woof!
Poor dog. Her fur is all wet.
The big dog comes inside.
Woof! Woof!
Everyone began drying her fur and petting her.
Ben wants to be pet too.
Arf! Arf!
No, Ben.
Everyone starts giving the big dog treats.
Ben wants some treats.
But, they only give Ben one treat.
Ben didn’t like the big dog.
He ran to his bed.
Grrrr!
Ben went to sleep.
Woof! Woof!
It was the big dog, waking Ben up.
“Why are you barking so loudly?” Ben asked.
“Little dog,” the big dog said. “ There is something in the back.”
“What is it?”
That’s when they saw it in the garden outside.
It was a rabbit!
The rabbit would eat up all the vegetables in the garden.
They had to stop it!
They barked and barked until the rabbit hopped away.
Woof! Woof!
Arf! Arf!
They saved the garden together!
Maybe the big dog isn’t so bad.
“What is your name?” asked Ben.
“My name is Heart.” answered the big dog.
From then on, Ben and Heart were the best of friends.
