K-3I Can Read Book series.
Illustrated by
Sarah McConnell.
Becky teases Emma in front of Becky's friends. Emma's dog, Dixie, wants to comfort her human, so Dixie sneaks into school. When Dixie runs into Becky accidentally and other kids laugh, Becky realizes how she made Emma feel and the two girls become friends. Although the resolution is predictable, the easy-to-read text and bright illustrations capture Emma and Dixie's loving friendship.
