Hardy Heart and Wally Waddle

Hardy Heart likes to ride his bike, swim laps around the pool, and kick and throw a ball. Wally Waddle likes to sit on the bench or lay in the lounge chair slurping shaved ice. Even though they have nothing in common, Hardy and Wally become best friends and decide to spend their summer break together at Hardy’s favorite place — Wellberry Farm. The farm is tucked away past deep woods and a steep hill. Wally is slow and tired, and he gets lost along the way. He stumbles across a cottage that seems like a dream-come-true when Wally walks in, until he meets the boys who live there. Wally’s only hope is that Hardy and his friends find him before it’s too late...
