KKN - Boys Best Friend

A boy in North Dakota has found out much the term "Mans Best Friend" actually means!

Carson Urness is a 3 year old boy in North Dakota. The Urness family found the dog called Cooper abandoned on the side of the road as a pup. Cooper is a Golden Retriever crossed with a German Shepherd. Since his adoption Cooper has been friends with Carson for all his life and that is true friendship. One day Carson and Cooper explored a little to far and their mother got worried ..... a lot. The family's backyard goes 2000 acres into farmland. The Mother was worried because the dark and rain was approaching. She called Search and Rescue to see where they were when suddenly a police man from search and rescue found the little boy, and the dog was lying on top of him, keeping him warm and safe.
That is a true story of friendship.

Kiwi Kids News - Upside Down House

Everybody has heard of an upside down cake, but what about and upside down house?

A house in Shanghai has an upside down house instead of a flat one that drew hundreds of visitors to it. They had people walking on the ceiling and taking photos near upside down chairs and sofas. People said that it was strange walking on the floor that sloped inwards to ward the centre and people came out feeling a little bit strange and a little bit dizzy.

(This is the upside down house.)
