Smile, Little Pug! – Lucy Astner (Ukrainian Hardcover)

It's finally time for Pug to go to kindergarten—but the little pup is filled with strange premonitions. What if the other kids don't like him, or the teacher is too strict? In Smile, Little Pug! Lucy Astner tells a tender tale about embracing new beginnings and overcoming common fears with the help of good friends.

Through gentle, playful adventure and clever tricks, Pug discovers how to conquer anxiety, lift a sudden bad mood, and find courage even on that momentous day when the entire family gathers for a group photo. With vibrant, full-color illustrations by Alexandra Helm and a comforting narrative, this book transforms scary first-day jitters into empowering, fun experiences.
