Book excerpt: Billy’s got a good life with Mum and Dad. Plenty of play, a little homework, and a smart, loving dog. Of course there’s the occasional hitch: that nosy, bossy old maid of a neighbour—and her Siamese cat—or the cheeky beat cop Agent 22. But it’s never too serious, and even Dad’s occasional embarrassing blunders can’t spoil things for long. After all, as long as you have friends, everything will be all right in the end!Billy’s got a good life with Mum and Dad. Plenty of play, a little homework, and a smart, loving dog.
