It’s a very special day at Penn State Children’s Hospital for Kaia and Becky, the hospital’s two facility dogs. This golden dynamic duo has a lot to bark about, including their mission to provide kids and families with emotional support as they navigate their way through their hospital journey. From Lindsay C. Barry, author of Journey to Constellation Station, and Susan Szecsi, award-winning illustrator of Yes, I Can Listen!, comes this exciting new picture book about a day in the life of Penn State Hospital’s emotional-support Golden Retrievers. A portion of all royalties are being donated to the Children’s Hospital in hopes of helping other children and families in the future.
