Reach for this book when your family is preparing for or has just welcomed a new puppy and your child is struggling to understand why the dog acts the way it does. This gentle story focuses on a young girl observing her new pet, learning that a yawn might mean the puppy is tired or that a sniff is how a dog says hello. It focuses heavily on empathy and the developmental milestone of realizing that animals have their own way of communicating. It is perfectly tuned for the short attention spans of toddlers and preschoolers, offering a calming model for how to interact safely and kindly with a furry friend. Parents will appreciate how it frames pet ownership as a relationship based on observation and care rather than just a toy to play with.
