- Just be yourself, honey. Walk over, smile, and say hello. They will love you!
- Sammy was nervous. He and his family had just moved into a new town, and today was his first day at his new school. His mom tried to cheer him up with inspirational words, but Sammy was still afraid. How would he make friends all over again? What if no one liked him? He missed his old friends.
- Slide: 3
- Welcome!
- Everyone already knows each other...

- As Sammy's eyes darted around the room, he spied another dog standing all alone in the library area. He wondered if he should go over to the other dog, but he was terrified!
