When Pluto Helped a Friend - Hardcover

by Rosy Dabas (Author), Rosy Dabas (Illustrator)

Meet Pluto, a fluffy, curly Cavapoo with soft brown eyes and the biggest heart you've ever seen.

One sunny morning, Pluto discovers a little girl named Allie sitting alone under a big tree, crying because her balloon flew away. Pluto doesn't bark. He doesn't jump. He simply walks over quietly and sits beside her - because sometimes the kindest thing you can do is just show up.

When Pluto Helped a Friend is a gentle, heartwarming story about empathy, emotional awareness, and the special bond between children and animals. Through Pluto's simple act of kindness, young readers learn that you don't need words to make someone feel less alone.

Perfect for toddlers and early readers ages 2-6, bedtime reading and classroom read-alouds, social-emotional learning at home or in school, and animal lovers and future pet owners everywhere.

Based on a real dog. Pluto is a real Cavapoo born on September 22, 2020 - a COVID baby who arrived when the world went quiet and filled it back up with love. This book is inspired by his very real, very wonderful instinct for knowing exactly when I need him most.

Pluto's Adventures is an ongoing series exploring kindness, courage, empathy, and compassion - one waggy tail at a time.
