Every day after school, little Hannah sees her classmate's dog, Sugar. All the other kids love to play with Sugar, but Hannah politely declines; she just can't conquer her fear of dogs. But one day Sugar goes missing, and Hannah joins the search to help her classmate recover her pet. As fate would have it, Hannah is the one to find Sugar, and although it takes a lot of courage, she brings him home safely and finds herself with an unlikely new friend.
