Buddy, since you are about to become a published book personality, I have a few questions for you…
C: Tell the readers about your first date.
B: Ladybug and I slurped some noodles together, and when our noses touched, I knew she was the one!
C: Buddy! That’s not your date! That’s Lady and the Tramp!
C: What is your favourite holiday?
B: Don’t they all have tasty eats? I like them all – but I prefer Hallowe’en. I like to do tricks, and even better for treats.
C: If you had a perfect day off, what would you do, where, and with whom?
B: First I would go on a huge walk and stop and sniff everywhere I wanted. I’d take you and Ladybug. Then, we’d go to a coffee shop and I’d jump up on the table and drink your latte and eat all the snacks. I would not share with you or Ladybug! We’d take a big car ride before going home, and I’d drive the car.
C: BUDDY!
B: Then, we’d come home, and you’d make at least 5 different types of meats on the bbq. Then you’d let me eat them all. Then I’d fall asleep in front of the fire and dream of doing it all again!
C: What is your favourite book?
B: I have a few. I like Winnie the Pooh. He gets stuck in the honey jar, just like I get stuck in the backpack eating lunch. He also has to do his exercises. You keep saying I have to do exercises too, if I want my treats. Also, Ladybug reminds me of Piglet. I’m Pooh taking care of Ladybug.
C: What others do you like?
B: Green Eggs and Ham. But I don’t understand why Sam I am doesn’t just eat the eggs and ham. The colour of the food just isn’t that important!
C: What kind of movies do you like?
B: Definitely my favourite movie is that one about the burgers and fries – Supersize Me!
C: Buddy! That’s not very healthy. You know that guy gets sick from eating so many fatty foods!
B: But I was jealous of how he got all the burgers. If I could eat like that every day, I would.
C: Who is your favourite character (other than Winnie the Pooh)?
B: I’m a little ashamed to admit it because he’s kind of a mean guy. And I’m friendly. But I really like Oscar the Grouch.
C: That’s a strange choice.
B: Well, he gets to live in the garbage can full of those succulent morsels. It’s irrestistible!
C: Okay…. Moving on!
C: What was your first thought when you found out your real-life adventures and friends were going to be in a book?
B: Well, when you told me that my story was about breaking into a school and eating lunches, I felt… HUNGRY! Can you eat the book?
C: Buddy! Please don’t eat books, they will make you sick!
C: What’s your worst habit?
B: Habit? What’s that?
C: It’s a thing you do over and over again.
B: Well, I like to throw my two paws up in the air – like this! But it isn’t a BAD thing… It usually results in me getting FOoD!
C: Buddy, what do you think about school?
B: Isn’t it that building you go to when you say “work” every morning? I don’t like the word “work”.
C: Yes, where the kids are.
B: OH! Bring me! Where there are kids, there is lunch. Kids are not too tall, and I can jump high. It seems in these buildings called schools, they keep their lunch in the hallways. I think you should let me in there.
C: Buddy, why is your tail crooked?
B: Shhhh, it’s a secret I can’t reveal. Some people weren’t so nice to me, and I had to fight for food. But I can tell you that with you, I found love.
