Best Friends in the Universe

Best friends Hector and Louie do everything together. They have dance parties, invent new foods, tell knock-knock jokes, share secrets, and write books together.

Their friendship is totally perfect and nothing could ever wreck it, except if they told each other’s secrets. Then the friendship would be cancelled and they’d have to rip the book they are writing to shreds. But that will never happen.

Never ever.
