<p data-pm-slice="1 1 []">Tad Toad likes playing in the rain. Tad Toad doesn&#8217;t. Can they still be best friends?</p>
<p><strong>Narrator: </strong>Male</p>
<p><strong>Story Begins: </strong>4:02</p>
<p><em><strong>Tandem Toads </strong></em>Excerpt:</p>
<blockquote><p>The two toads sat in silence for a moment as the rain continued to fall around them – Tanner safe under his big leaf, and Tad next to his little puddle.</p>
<p>Tad felt confused. He had always shared his favorite things with Tanner. They spent nearly every day with one another. They liked the same snacks, the same fun games, the same shady spots to rest. Tad always thought that’s what best friends did. “If Tanner doesn’t like puddles, does that mean we’re not as close as we used to be?” Tad wondered to himself. The thought made him feel a bit wobbly inside.</p>
<p>Tad frowned. He looked at the puddles, then back at Tanner. “But we always do things together.”</p></blockquote>
