Synopsis

Poor Danny is lonely. Looks like he'll have to go out and find a companion! So he heads straight for the petshop - a nice little dog will suit him down to the ground. But the petshop owner doesn't have any dogs - and he offers Danny something else, instead: a living, breathing, 'human' friend of his own. Danny can't believe his luck - at last a companion that will actually talk to him. But perhaps making friends isn't quite that simple, as Danny begins to realise in the adventures that follow . . . Are friends really worth the bother!
