This is the first in a line of four books within the National
Geographic Kids Chapters series that explore unexpected animal bonds.
In this book you'll meet four unlikely pairings, including Billy and
Lilly. Billy the boxer adopted Lilly the goat when she was abandoned by
her mother. Billy and Lilly are rarely apart since Billy has taken on
the role of Lilly's protector, caretaker, and constant companion. This
and the other stories in this book will enchant readers and empower them
to devour the more text-heavy "grown up" style of the book, while still
keeping the story easily digestable for a hestitant reader.
