In modern-day Lynchburg, three-year-old Vail and his curious dog Crosby face a big challenge: learning to live with their new neighbor, who seems very different from them. Through a series of adventures, they discover the importance of tolerance and acceptance.
Vail and his dog Crosby were playing in their backyard when they noticed a new family moving in next door. The new neighbor, a boy named Kai, had different toys and a different way of playing. Vail felt unsure and didn't know if they could be friends. This made Vail feel sad and confused. He really wanted to make a new friend but didn't know how.
Vail decided to go introduce himself. But as he approached, he saw Kai playing with a strange toy that Vail didn't understand. Vail felt nervous and turned back. Crosby wagged his tail and barked to encourage Vail. Vail sighed and said, - What if Kai doesn't like me?
The next day, Vail watched Kai from behind the fence. Kai was playing a game Vail had never seen before. Vail felt even more unsure. - Why can't he play like me? Vail asked Crosby. Crosby tilted his head and barked as if to say, - Maybe it's fun! Vail decided to try again but felt very scared.
Vail felt like giving up. He sat on the grass and sighed. - I don't think I can do it, Vail said. Crosby nudged him with his nose and barked softly. Vail hugged Crosby and said, - Maybe you're right. I should try one more time.
Vail's mom saw him and came over. - What's wrong, Vail? she asked. Vail explained his worries. - Maybe Kai feels the same way, she suggested. - Why don't you invite him to play together? Vail nodded. He took a deep breath and walked over to Kai. - Hi, my name is Vail. Can we play together?
Kai smiled and said, - Sure! They started playing together and soon became friends. Vail learned that different can be fun and exciting. - I like your game, Kai! Vail said. Kai replied, - And I like your dog, Vail! They laughed and played, happy to have found a new friend.
