Fred is eager to explore the world and learn as much as possible. Some people might think he is slightly goofy, wide-eyed and innocent, but also capable of concocting elaborate plans and schemes. Those schemes often go awry leaving readers laughing as they journey along with Fred. Al, Fred's best friend, is an intelligent little owl who is systematic and a big fan of the scientific method. He believes problems can be solved analytically and one should ponder before making a decision, which is a great complement to Fred's headlong rush into life. What is the Story About?

He uses these 3 laws to grow from being the runt of the litter to a big dog with a world famous smile...until one day he loses that very smile.
