| book description |

In a gentle story from Caldecott Honoree Lauren Castillo, a shy young girl finds exploring her new city and making friends overwhelming â€“ until a rescue dog helps her uncover the bravery that was always in her. A young girl and her mother move to an apartment in a new city. Despite her mum's efforts to take her out, the girl would rather play by herself in their cosy home â€“ she feels just fine on her own. Meeting any children her age has her hiding behind her motherâ€™s legs, and invitations to group activities has her in tears. That is, until she meets Millie, a rescue dog who is not too big, not too small, and kisses her arm when the girl nervously reaches out. With Millie, saying hello to new people isnâ€™t so scary, and maybe making a friend isnâ€™t either. Through emotionally honest prose and soft, expressive illustrations, Lauren Castillo explores one girlâ€™s shyness and anxiety â€“ and how one dogâ€™s love helps her open up â€“ in a warm picture book that reminds readers of how the right companion can make the world feel like a less frightening place.
