About this ebook
Along with his friend and fellow mule, Simon Slick, Dudley moves to Farmer Franks home. But Farmer Frank isnt nice like Farmer Joe, and he treats the two mules terribly. One day, Dudley has had enough. He convinces Simon Slick to play a trick on Farmer Frank so they dont have to work out in the field. Much to his astonishment, Dudley tires out the farmer so much that he quits farming!
Since Farmer Joe feels better, the two friends return to their home. But the mischievous mule isnt done getting into trouble. He creates one embarrassing situation after another, whether its a toothache that requires the help of Dr. Logan or eating too many juicy apples from the meadow. Who knows what Dudley will think of next!
Share in the fun adventures of these warmhearted farm animals in Dudley and Friends.

Preface
This book started out with me trying to see what I could do with writing. With some help from my husband and my friend, Mary, this work began. Then I decided that I liked being a writer so I continued with this story.
Introduction
A humorous look at the life and times of a mule named Dudley and his friends on the farm. Mischievous experiences from the eyes of a mule and the trouble he and his friends get into.
Jump Start Dudley
Farmer Joe was a good man. All the animals loved him. But he became very sick.
Dudley was a mule that was born on Farmer Joe’s farm. He was not very old but he loved life and enjoyed having fun.
All the animals were sad that day. Farmer Joe’s cousin, Farmer Dan, had told them that they would all be getting a new home soon.
Dudley do you think we will get to stay together?
Simon Slick asked.
I hope so,
Dudley answered.
About that time a truck pulled up to the barn.
Farmer Dan yelled, Dudley, Simon Slick, come up to the barn. You fellows are going to your new home now.
Everyone watched as they began to leave the barn yard.
Dudley stopped and turned to look at the other animals.
Bye. I hope we all get good homes,
Dudley said.
As Dudley and Simon Slick were walking away Dudley said, Listen, Simon Slick.
Sara, the pig, was crying and every animal stood looking at the ground. They were afraid to look at each other, afraid they would all cry.
Man, I am sure glad we get to stay together,
Dudley said.
Just as they reached the barn Farmer Dan met them.
Boys, are you ready to go to your new home now?
Farmer Dan asked.
There was a long pause.
The man you will live with, his name is Farmer Frank. I don’t know him, but I have heard he is a tough man. If you do everything you are told I think you will be alright,
Farmer Dan said.
Farmer Dan paused for a brief moment.
I am going to miss you, but I don’t have a choice. Farmer Joe is a very sick man and he cannot take care of you anymore,
Farmer Dan said.
Farmer Frank came stomping around the barn. Is this those mules you told me about?
he asked.
Yes,
Farmer Dan said. This is Dudley, and this is, uh.
I don’t care if they have a name or not! Are they healthy?
Farmer Frank interrupted.
Yes,
Farmer Dan replied.
Well, I guess we will be on our way,
Farmer Frank said.
These mules sure are fine,
Farmer Frank said, as he looked at Dudley.
Farmer Frank backed his truck up to the gate.
Oh great!
Dudley said. We don’t even have a name! We are not even a number! He called us mules! Do you believe that, Simon Slick?
I don’t think I am going to like this!
Simon Slick said.
Farmer Frank tied Dudley and Simon Slick to the back of his truck.
What are you doing?
Dudley asked.
You didn’t think I was going to let you fellas ride did you? No siree! You fellas are mules! From here on there will be no easy life for you!
Farmer Frank said
