Book excerpt: A rambunctious mutt and a curious porpoise become best pals in this adorably charming story about friendship and family. When a bad storm throws Bangor, a harbor porpoise, off course, he finds himself all alone in the harbor of Ogunquit, Maine. And he's not the only one who's lost in these wayward waters: Lars, a rowdy pup, is knocked overboard a nearby boat. With the help of a girl named Natalie, Bangor rescues Lars, and they become fast friends. But not everyone in the small town approves of this unlikely friendship. Some find Lars a nuisance to the community, and it isn't safe for Bangor to remain in the harbor. It's up to Natalie to convince the town to locate Bangor's pod and return him safely home -- even if it means saying goodbye to her new friend. Full of humor and heart, A Dog's Porpoise asks readers to consider what it means to be a good friend, especially during tough times.

That's life for Lars and Bangor, a dog and harbor porpoise, best friends in the town of Ogunquit -- and everyone knows it. They became a sensation after Bangor was separated from his pod and trapped in the harbor, and it was up to Lars and his human, Natalie, to reunite him with his family. Now, Bangor and his pod are back, but they're not the only newcomers in town: Oguinquit has been overrun with tourists and reporters (and in the off-season, too!) who want to catch a glimpse of the dog-and-porpoise duo. And to make things worse for Lars, a river otter named Marina has captured everyone's hearts -- including Bangor's! With Marina taking center stage, will Lars' and Bangor's friendship ever be the same again?

She plants a seed in their hearts to pursue that purpose and live the adventure God has for them.
