Table Of Contents
Lizzy Bruin was Sister Bear's very best friend. It seemed like they had been best friends for a very long time.
Â
Lizzy Bruin and Sister Bear had been through a lot together. Once they had a slumber party that got a little out of hand.
Â
They were in the school play that time Brother forgot his lines.
Â
They built their own clubhouse when Brother kept them out of his.
Â
They played dress up and dolls, and rode their bikes, and picked flowers, and rolled down hills, and giggled.
Â
Sister was glad she had such a good friend. She could always rely on Lizzy to be there for her. They hardly ever fought or argued. Not, that is, until Sister started to spend more time with Suzy MacGrizzie.
