Best of friends, for life…

If you are familiar with Dora the Explorer then you might find it easy to answer who Dora and Boots are.

Dora is a seven-year old Latina lass who pilots the animated show “Dora the Explorer.” She is set forth to beat various tasks. Every task she hurdles requires her to come up with strategic plans. At all times, Dora succeeds in her mission. Dora will not be able to accomplish her tasks if Boots is nowhere to be found.

Dora and Boots have always been together with every Dora’s adventure. They have experienced laughter and sadness together. Both have encountered triumphs and failures. They just lived their lives together.

Some of Dora and Boots adventures keep their friendship alive are the following:

On one occasion during Boots’ birthday, Dora plans a surprise party for her best pal. She invited all their common friends. However Dora, together with her friends has to climb a stair with almost-never-ending steps. Afterwards she and her friends need to go across a Troll Bridge. Dora and her friends need to do that for them to be able to reach the venue for the surprise party…all for the love of Boots.

It is not only during good times that Dora and Boots are together. They are also together on bad and rough times.

There is also one instance where Dora and Boots have to catch a bouncing ball. Boots is the one who purchased the bouncing ball. He thought it will be a good toy for him and Dora.

They also brainstormed on a tricky riddle at the Troll Bridge for them to be able to get their toy. Fatefully Swiper threw the bouncing ball into the Volcano. Dora and Boots had their first taste of volcano explosion as it spewed the bouncing ball.

Dora and Boots also have a heart for other creatures. They will face many challenges set forth to them just to help someone.

During one of Dora and Boot’s water adventure, they have come across a baby fish which is fenced in a tide pool. Dora and Boots agreed to help the baby fish and chose to return him in its home. The decision to return the baby fish is not an easy one for both friends needs to mount over a sandcastle which is believed to be owned by a King Crab. Moreover, they need to make Val the Octopus says yes to take them into an underwater ride.
