An unlikely duo star in a charming story about being different, finding courage, and the importance of friendship in the first book in a new series from an award-winning animation director.

Kat likes doing things her very own way, but sometimes she doubts herself. So when a bird named Juju arrives, Kat hopes he'll be the best friend she's always wanted. He's outgoing and silly and doesn't worry about what others think--the opposite of who she is. Bit by bit, with Juju's help, Kat discovers her strength, and how to have a friend and be one--while still being true to herself.
