1. The comic strip "Peanuts" by Charles M. Schulz

Snoopy is Charlie Brown's dog, and they are very close friends, although sometimes they become annoyed with each other. Charlie Brown loves Snoopy and cares for him deeply. He does many things for Snoopy, and Snoopy is usually thankful for these things, but sometimes he is not. Snoopy's laziness and fantasy life often upset Charlie Brown and he asks, "Why can't I have a normal dog like everyone else?" However, Charlie still loves Snoopy and one day he leaves camp early, because he missed Snoopy too much. In the end, both of them realise how unique and important their friendship is.

2. "My Two Blankets" by Irena Kobald

A young girl (her aunt called her Cartwheel¹) leaves her country because of war and arrives in Australia. She dresses differently, looks differently, and she doesn't speak a word of English. She finds life there hard and cold, so she wraps herself in the blanket from her homeland. This "blanket" is a physical symbol of the language Cartwheel spoke at home. It gives her comfort when she feels sad or lonely. One day, Cartwheel meets a friend who helps build her vocabulary and teaches her new words, creating a new "blanket" for her. As she learns new words, she soon finds comfort in knowing that she is safe even under a new blanket.

Loneliness, warm friendship, sharing and kindness make this story heart touching.

3. The "Harry Potter" series by J.K. Rowling

The deep friendship between Harry, Ron and Hermione, also known as the Golden Trio, is the backbone of the Harry Potter stories. All friendships have their ups and downs, and their relationship is no different. But still, despite their fights, they always come together and work on their problems. They are loyal and honest, they help each other and support each other at school, in sports and in their fight with dark magic.

4. "The Jungle Book" by Rudyard Kipling

Mowgli is a kid who is raised by wild animals in the jungle. Mowgli and Baloo's friendship is heartwarming. Mowgli learns the ways of the jungle from Baloo, who in turn treats Mowgli like a brother and is always ready with answers to Mowgli's questions on life. The beauty of their friendship comes from the fact the characters seem to be completely different but end up as close friends who will do anything for each other.

5. "The Adventures of Sherlock Holmes" by Sir Arthur Conan Doyle

Sherlock Holmes and Doctor Watson are nothing alike and yet they stick to each other like iron and magnet! Sherlock being arrogant (высокомерный / пагардлівы) and smart, Watson, often disorganised and forgetful, the friends are ready to work hard together, talk a lot and even attend concerts. Their friendship is based on trust and understanding, as well as respect for each other and common interest in solving crime.

6. "The Adventures of Tom Sawyer" by Mark Twain

The true friendship of Huckleberry Finn and Tom Sawyer – like so many others in literature – is based on situations that make two completely different personalities to work together. Throughout the stories, bossy and often selfish Tom is often the leader. Huck's ideas are simple and practical, but together they always get on with Tom's imaginative plans. Together, the two of them represent one of the great classic friendships of English literature.
