Jia avoids dogs of every kind, while Charlie, a French bulldog, keeps out of children’s way. Their story brings together two characters who are each wary of the other’s world. When a scarier situation pushes them together, the picture book turns their shared unease into a first connection. Its central idea is that understanding someone else’s fear can open the door to friendship.

Book overview

A young girl is afraid of dogs, and a small dog is afraid of children in this funny, bighearted picture book about overcoming fear to find friendship.

Jia runs from every dog--big, tiny, spotted, or shaggy. Charlie the French bulldog hides from every kid--behind couches, laundry, even grown-ups' legs.

When something far scarier forces these two together, they discover a sweet surprise: a friend who understands.
