RUDY'S NEW HUMAN

Life was good for Rudy the dog — until the new baby arrived. Rudy’s ne human is not what he expected: the baby ruins his routines, cuts into his nap time, gets him in trouble, and generally steals the spotlight. Will he ever find his place again in his family now that he must share it?

Rudy’s New Human is a sweet and humorous story that teaches older siblings how to learn to share parents’ attention—and to become friends with a new family member. Rudy and the baby learn to come together over new activities (such as a bedtime book) and will need each other even more when their family expands yet again!

Her inspiration for Rudy’s New Human came from watching her dog, Rudy Elden, as he adjusted to having a new baby human in the house. She lives in Miami, Florida.
