Miss Kitty has moved to her new home, Breazy Hills Farm, where she will meet many new barnyard friends. But making new friends, as Miss Kitty finds out, is not always easy. Sometimes it takes a special friend to understand being lonely and to help with hurt and scary feelings. With Ruby as her new friend, Miss Kitty finds her new home with all the barnyard animals as special as she hoped it would be.
After reading Miss Kitty's story, please take a few minutes to talk about the questions at the end of the book as a guide to open conversation about how hard it can be sometimes to be accepted. My hope is that, by discussing how Miss Kitty's feelings can be like those experienced by many children, children will understand that if they are feeling lonely, scared, or bullied, there is someone who can help, be it a teacher, parent, or another adult they feel safe with.
