About This Book
Reach for this book when your child feels invisible or too big for their surroundings, whether that is literally or emotionally. It is a perfect choice for the quiet dreamer who struggles to find their tribe or the child who feels their personality is a bit too much for others to handle. The story follows an enormous puppy whose massive size actually makes him harder to see, leading to a deep sense of loneliness. When a determined little girl notices him and climbs his tall legs to say hello, a beautiful bond is formed. Yoshitomo Nara's minimalist, contemporary art style creates a serene space for children to process feelings of being different. It is a gentle reminder that friendship does not require changing who you are: it just requires being found by the right person. This book is ideal for ages 4 to 8 and serves as a comforting hug for any child navigating social isolation.
