**Winner of the 2020 CBCA Awards Book of the Year for Early Childhood**

A delightful picture book about a friendship between an exuberant but loveable dachshund and his more retiring, tidy housemate.

My friend Fred eats dog food for breakfast.
I think dog food is disgusting.

My friend Fred howls at the moon.
I don't know why.

He does a lot of funny things.
But even though we are different, Fred is my best friend.

This is a really gorgeous story about having a friend who's differences you can't quite understand but you love them anyway for the way they are. The illustrations are so cute. This has become one of my little boy's favourite stories because as he has a dachshund that acts just like Fred.
