Synopsis
Mr Morf is a dog. But not just any kind of dog. Mr Morf is a circus dog. Instead of fetching the newspaper or guarding the house, he balances on the high wire, way up in the big top. And when other dogs are playing ball in the park, Mr Morf perfects his technique, day after day after day. Fame, however, isn't everything, and when Mr Morf wakes up sick one day, he knows that he is sick with loneliness. He packs his bag, leaves a note for the circus boss and sets off in search of a friend. But Penelope, the swallow, hasn't got time to be friends, the owl prefers to play at night and the wolf, quite frankly, is just in search of his next meal. But, then, just when Mr Morf is about to give up hope, he starts to laugh and laugh and laugh. He has a flea and she is tickling Mr Morf to bits! A friend at last... and what closer companion could he ask.

Salam is tired off people making fun off him. He leaves home without anybody noticing, carrying a big empty bag.
"Everything I find to help me grow can go into this bag, he decides. I wont return home until this bag is full."
