Life lesson: “This is my family. I found it all on my own. It’s little and broken, but still good. Yeah, still good.” Just sometimes life is not fair and you really need a friend. Lilo wanted a friend so bad.

She rescued Stitch. Stitch became more then a friend to Lilo. He became part of her family. That is just like me. I was really lonely and I needed a friend. I rescued Smokey and he became more then my friend. He became part of my family.

I am so happy we both found each other. Not only is he my best friend but I could not imagine my life without him. So, I decided to write a book about Smokey and how we found each other. “The Adventures of Smokey” describes how we became best friends and trusted each other.

I relate to the movie because even though Lilo has a small family, Stitch makes her happy. That is how I feel. Even though I don’t have a big family, Smokey makes me happy.

When I met Stitch at Disneyland, I shared with him about Smokey and became part of his family! We have so much in common. We both know the importance of family and friendship.
