Description
New York Times bestselling author Melissa Gilbert makes her picture book debut with this fetching story about a shy little girl and her spunky dog, Josephine!
Everyone has a favorite person, and Daddy is Daisy's. But when the two of them are on the road for Daddy's work, Daisy sometimes feels lonely. She is very shy and wishes she had a friend. So Daddy gets Daisy a surprise: a funny-looking puppy named Josephine. They make quite a pair-Daisy with her overbite and Josephine with her underbite. Will Daisy's rambunctious new friend help bring her out of her shell?
This charming story of an unlikely friendship, based on actress and New York Times bestselling author Melissa Gilbert's own childhood and her very own French bull dog named Josephine is one that everyone can relate to.
