Harry and Gary are two friends from different worlds and very naïve about the social rules of friendship. In their naiveté, they form a bond that is both solid and unshakable and because they are unaware of the separation of air breathers and water breathers they share a deep and meaningful companionship full of dreams and adventure as they both perceive the world. Gary the goldfish, has a wider perspective on life beyond his fishbowl. It is through his fishbowl view of the outside world, he is able to describe his point of view to his friend, Harry the Hamster. Harry the hamster is oblivious to the world beyond the perspective told by his trusted friend. He has no reason to see the world through a fishbowl perspective because of where has been positioned in life.Both Gary’s and Harry’s world is turned upside down when they meet a new friend, Barry the bird, a well-traveled crow who does not sugar coat the realities of life as he relates his wider perspective of the world beyond Gary’s and Harry’s world. Barry explains that the world is a fiercely brutal place that is as expansive as it is deep, full of predators and some of those predators live in worlds like Gary and in worlds like Harry. While Barry’s revelations cause the two friends to fear for their safety as well as destroy all possibilities of an adventure together, a more insidious revelation is revealed that truly distresses them; In the outside world, they are not friends! Because they come from different worlds, they could never be friends and in fact, the Bird warns that even he would eat them if they were to ever leave the safety of their own isolated worlds.It was determined by the more aware Gary the goldfish that as much as he wanted to go on adventures and meet new and exciting animals, he would never allow the bond between him and Harry to be put into jeopardy. He never wanted to lose his friend. The moral of the story is that before society pollutes your perspective with whom to hate, whom to love, whom to befriend and with whom to be enemies, you should invest the time to find out for yourself who is friend and who is foe and the barriers that may come in the way can always be overcome. Friendship is better than Enemies and Love is greater than hate.

Red really and truly wanted to have human friends. One day he decided that human kids would love him because he knew in his heart he is good person… well a good ogre. So he plucked up his courage and introduced himself to the kids playing by the forest. But when the kids saw him, they screamed and threw stones and sticks at him. It hurt... A little bruise here and there wasn’t a big deal. He had much worse injuries before. What hurt was the rejection. Overwhelmed by deep shame, Red ran away in tears and hid in the Old Nightshade Grove, “They don’t like me because I’m a monster! It wasn’t my choice to be an ogre, you know…” That was when Blue came by. Blue was another ogre. In fact, the only other ogre left after the Great Ogre Hunt of 1066 AD. Having Blue beside him made Red feel better. Blue always accepted Red. Red told Blue what had happened, and Blue said he had the perfect plan to help Red make human friends… In this ancient life-changing tale, Albert Kim and Yuna Joe have combined their talents to tell a story that is more relevant today than ever. This book answers the question: “What is a friend?” In today’s exploding population, paradoxically loneliness is commonplace and antidepressant prescriptions to cope with loneliness have been rising exponentially. This story may hold a cure to stop the epidemic of the wildly spreading friendlessness.
