Reach for this book when your child is preparing for their first night away from home or expressing anxiety about sleeping in a new environment. This gentle story follows the beloved puppy Biscuit as he joins his friend Puddles for a sleepover. It addresses the common 'first-time' jitters children face, from the excitement of packing a bag to the slight tremlessness of being in a different bed. By centering the experience on a playful puppy, the book allows children to project their own feelings of nervousness onto Biscuit, making the conversation about bravery feel safe and accessible. It is ideal for toddlers and preschoolers (ages 2 to 5) who are moving toward greater independence. Parents will appreciate how the story models that missing home is normal, but that with a good friend and a familiar stuffed animal, stayovers can be a joyful milestone.
