I would love to chat with the author of this book!
I am not sure if this was meant to be funny– but it was hilarious. Mom’s facial expressions kept me giggling throughout the story.
I also loved the message of making sure our kids know that they are special. Regardless of what they bring to the playdate. You don’t need cool toys or fancy tricks to be likable!
How to use this children’s book
Chat with your kiddos about change, loneliness, what a playdate should look like, or even use it to segue into a conversation on pet responsibility.

Imaginary friends are real friends.
When Maude moves to a new town, everything feels…okay. Things would feel just right if only she had a friend.
So, Maude draws a blue puppy and names him Scribbly.
He plays catch, takes naps, but most importantly, Scribbly teaches Maude the importance of staying true to herself and gives her the courage to meet new friends—both human and four-legged.
