\nPassenger Puppy Excerpt:
\nIt was an ordinary day on Ahway Island. In one cozy house, the kitchen was bustling with energy. Pal, the little puppy, darted in between and around the boy and girl\u2019s feet as they rushed around the kitchen, preparing for the day. Pal\u2019s tail wagged furiously, his excitement making him a blur of energy. He loved mornings, especially when everyone was up and about.
\n
\n\u201cWatch out, Pal!\u201d chuckled the girl, gently nudging him away as she grabbed her backpack.
\n
\nThe boy laughed and scratched Pal\u2019s ears. \u201cWe\u2019ll see you later, Pal!\u201d he said, as he and the girl slipped on their shoes and slung their bags over their shoulders.
