Maya - A Special Day

Cuddling away fears together: Maya shows how safe the world can feel.

Maya is new to her pack. As a small miniature schnauzer puppy, she discovers the world with pure curiosity. But when a "very special day" approaches, the mood changes: Her older sister Charly trembles at the thought of visiting the vet. Maya senses the tension, but she doesn't even know what "fear" actually is.
In this unique story told from an intimate first-person perspective, children experience how fear dissolves into thin air when security and trust come first.

Sarah Mars sensitively tells how the dreaded "jab" goes completely unnoticed because love is stronger. A book that shows: You are safe, you are loved – and courage grows where the family sticks together.

In summary:
