Horace, Morris but mostly Dolores

The three fearless friends share every adventure until Horace and Morris decide they need to form their own boys only club. Dolores retaliates by forming a girls only club. But after a while the three friends become bored with the strict gender-related activities they so with their same-sex friends. It isn't long before Horace, Morris and Dolores are back together– with two new friends who love adventure, Boris and Chloris! The story's gentle message encourages tolerance and inclusion and rejects gender stereotyping.

Horace and Morris Join the Chorus (but what about Dolores?)

The three friends try out for the chorus, but only Horace and Morris are accepted.Dolores feels left out and neglected by her friends. At first she feels sorry for herself but then decides to take action. She writes a letter to the choral teacher who is impressed with her perseverance and promises to work with her. And her letter is so well written, he turns it into a song for the chorus.The story gently reassures children that no one is good at everything, and everyone is good at something.
