Intermountain Therapy Animals / R.E.A.D. Store

Meet Chou Chou, a very busy therapy and R.E.A.D. registered dog. In this book written by Chou Chou’s human, Chou Chou learns how to deal with difficult feelings when her friend Toffee no longer wants to play with her. 

Chou Chou and and her friend, Toffee, played together almost daily for more than two years and sought each other out from all the other dogs on the playground. But around his third birthday, Toffee suddenly stopped playing with other dogs, including Chou Chou. How did Chou Chou handle this? And what happy surprise happened later? Friends may change as they grow older. It’s nobody’s fault, but one friend may feel left out as the other goes in a new direction, becoming distant. It’s painful for the child left behind, and it takes time to heal. New friends and new hobbies can help with this transition. But children shouldn’t feel hopeless about what seems like the end of a friendship: if you wait a while, people (and puppies!) often come back.
