Book Synopsis

Piper's Little White Dog is a heartwarming picture book about the joys and comforts of a child's best companion. Piper lives in a lively home with three energetic older brothers, but her constant source of comfort and laughter is her devoted little white dog.

Unlike the bigger dogs in the book, Piper's little white dog never chases cars, steals donuts, or chews shoes. He may be better behaved, but he is also full of personality and charm. He greets Piper at the door, snuggles with her on the couch, and waits faithfully by her bedroom every night. Through gentle mischief and quiet moments, Piper and her little white dog navigate the busyness of family life together, discovering the joy of small routines and unconditional companionship.

Illustrated by debut artist Liam Henry, the book's expressive, tender artwork brings every scene to life, highlighting the love and connection between Piper and her dog. Perfect for read-aloud sessions or early independent readers, this story celebrates family life, empathy, and the small moments that make childhood magical.
