Book excerpt: Fate brought them together, well, that and old Gabe running Charlie up Billy's tree. At first Henry the keeper of the tree didn't want Charlie anywhere in his tree, but seeing these two little birds together, he knew this was the best thing for both of them. True, they were different, one was yellow and had lived in a cage all alone most of his life. The other was blue and lived in a tree all his life, surrounded by friends. But they also were the same; both were lonely and needed a friend, and most of all, they would become the others best lookout friend in all the kingdom. They would learn to rely on each other, have each others backs, and put their own life in danger in order to save the other. They would not only become the best lookout friends but they would become family, the very thing both wanted all their lives.
