Book Synopsis

Little Sunita and her family are trying to start a new life after a terrible fire. Their home and possessions--including all of Sunita's schoolbooks and toys--burned to ashes in the blaze. Worst of all, their puppy Taro is missing.
Sunita's parents are busy building their new home, and no one has time to listen to Sunita's worries. But she is lucky enough to have an observant teacher, who comes to her aid. The teacher takes Sunita to meet her doctor friend and she teaches Sunita how to knit a new sleep toy to replace the missing one.
Sunita learns that you can be wounded not only on the outside but also beneath the surface. Fortunately, both can heal.

Pieni Sunita-tyttö joutuu perheensä kanssa aloittamaan uutta elämää tulipalon jälkeen. Kodin tavaroiden mukana myös pikkukoululaisen kirjat ja lelut ovat palaneet poroksi. Pahinta on lemmikkikoira Taron katoaminen.
Vanhemmat keskittyvät uuden kodin rakentamiseen, eikä kenelläkään ole aikaa kuunnella Sunitan huolia. Onneksi tarkkasilmäinen opettaja tulee apuun. Hän vie Sunitan tapaamaan lääkäriystäväänsä, ja opettaa tyttöä virkkaamaan uuden unilelun palaneen tilalle.
Sunita oppii ymmärtämään, että vammoja voi olla sekä pinnalla että pinnan alla. Onneksi molemmista voi parantua.
