Snuggling away fears: Maya shows just how safe the world can feel.
Maya is new to her pack. As a little miniature schnauzer puppy, she discovers the world with pure curiosity. But as a "very special day" approaches, the mood changes: Her big sister Charly trembles before the vet visit. Maya senses the tension, but she herself doesn't even know what "fear" actually is.
In this unique story told from an intimate first-person perspective, children experience how fear melts away when comfort and trust come first.
Sarah Mars sensitively tells how the dreaded "pinch" goes completely unnoticed because love is stronger. A book that shows: You are safe, you are loved – and courage grows where the family stands together.
