In Apollo's Heart, young readers are introduced to Apollo, a gentle and lovable Cane Corso with a heart as majestic as his stature. Apollo dreams of making friends, so he sets out on an adventure around the scenic Laguna Lake. But his journey isn't easy-when the other animals see his size, they quickly run away, leaving Apollo feeling sad and alone.

Just when he's about to give up, Apollo meets Pongo, a tiny Maltipoo with a big personality, who shows him that true friendship can come from the most unexpected places-and that it's what's inside that matters most. Together, they teach the other animals to look beyond appearances and embrace the beauty of kindness and inclusion.

This beautifully illustrated picture book is perfect for children who may struggle with making friends, feeling different, or finding their place. Apollo's Heart teaches valuable lessons about kindness, inclusion, self-acceptance, and the courage to embrace one's unique qualities.

Whether for storytime, classrooms, or family discussions, this heartfelt tale sparks meaningful conversations about empathy, friendship, and the beauty of diversity. Ideal for children ages 3-8, this book is a touching reminder that big hearts can make a big difference.
