The Adventures of Doodle and PewPew: Courageous Doodle is a heartwarming children’s picture book written by Eric Doane, with illustrations by Shehan Konthawardhana. A little girl who grew up surrounded by farm animals and her beloved family dog, Doodle, always dreamed of having a puppy of her own. She begged her parents for one, but they believed she wasn't ready for the responsibility of dog ownership. Finally, her parents agree and bring home a Beabull puppy, which she names PewPew. She is overjoyed and eager for her family to embrace her new furry friend. However, Doodle feels uncertain about this new addition to the family. Having been bullied by a small dog in the past, Doodle is reminded of his trauma when he meets PewPew. His acceptance of PewPew comes slowly, but he eventually realizes that PewPew is not the dog that once bullied him, but rather a potential friend with whom he can enjoy fun adventures.
