Sally's Big Day - Hardcover

by Andrew Larsen (Author), Dawn Lo (Illustrator)

Sally is excited for the first day of puppy school, but it isn't easy when there are so many new things to see (and sniff!).

It's hard to focus at puppy school when there are all kinds of pups to play with, water to splash in...and so many smells! But Sally doesn't give up and keeps trying, ending the day triumphantly.

Just like children, puppies have a lot to explore in and learn about the world around them. This sweet story will give confidence to young readers as they venture into the world to learn and try new things.
