Lulu's New Fur Friend

Lulu's New Fur Friend

Lulu's New Fur Friend is a beautifully illustrated children's book that follows a young girl's quest to reunite a lost dog with its owner, with the help of her community.

It's a heartwarming story about the joys of new friendships and the responsibilities that come with pet ownership. The book provides an excellent opportunity for children to learn about the importance of pet care, including their basic needs and the role of love, kindness, and compassion.

Additionally, the story highlights the value of having a strong community network to help locate lost pets and encourages kids to connect with their neighbors.

Lulu relies on her community to find the lost dog's owner...

Have you had a pet as your best friend?

Owning a pet comes with a lot of responsibilities, such as providing love, food, baths, and walks. Lulu also discovered these responsibilities firsthand as she fell in love with her new furry friend.

Meet Our Emmie Lulu

lost dog, finding an owner, caring for a pet, community coming together, ,

Lulu learns the many responsibilities of caring for a pet and never imagined how difficult it would be to return her to the owner.

When Emmie was young, I wrote a story inspired by her love for playing hide and seek with her brother.

The book follows a little girl who, while playing hide and seek with her mom, discovers a lost pet and sets out to find its owner. Similarly, to Emmie, Lulu, the protagonist in the book, has a kind and caring heart and becomes deeply attached to the pet she is trying to help reunite with its owner.

As the story unfolds, readers will discover whether Lulu is ready to say goodbye to her new furry friend after successfully finding its rightful owner.

Full content visible, double tap to read brief content.

At the heart of my work in children’s literature lies a deep passion for inspiring young minds and fostering a love of reading.

I believe that stories have the power to shape perspectives, ignite imaginations, and promote empathy among children.

Through my writing, I strive to create engaging narratives that celebrate diversity, individuality, and the beauty of friendship.

My books incorporate essential themes of STEAM (Science, Technology, Engineering, Arts, and Mathematics) and SEL (Social-Emotional Learning), emphasizing kindness, acceptance, diversity, building friendships, and the power of self-confidence.

Writing children’s books is a rewarding journey that allows me to connect with young readers and their families. Each story is an opportunity to explore important lessons that resonate with the hearts and minds of children, helping them navigate the world with confidence and compassion.

Join me in this adventure of storytelling, where every page turned is a step toward understanding, acceptance, and joy.

    Such a cute book about a little girl who finds her perfect match. She looks and looks for the owner with no avail! When she finally finds him, he agrees to let her keep his dog because he is getting old and knows the pet is in good hands!

    This is such a fun story with a really nice message of showing kindness and selflessness. I would definitely recommend it.

    This is a cute story about a young girl who finds a lost dog and her search to find the owner. The message in this book would be helpful for children that want a new pet to help them understand the responsibilities of caring for one. I liked the ending that the elderly man accepted he could no longer care for a large animal and he found the new perfect owner to love and care for his dog as much as he did and more.

    Sweet story written in rhyme about a girl and her love for a dog who ultimately becomes her own. My niece loves rhyming stories AND dogs, so this was an easy and enjoyable read for her. Though she was sad that the dog lost its home, she loved that the girl tried hard to find its owner, and she clapped when she was allowed to keep the dog at the end of the story. Win-win for both!

    What a sweet book about caring for a dog, responsible pet ownership, and most of all... friendship! We are big dog lovers in this house and as new puppy owners I'll be sharing this book with my kids to teach them about how to care for our new addition.
