Howluna follows Nala, a cheerful, stink-loving beagle who has never quite understood why dogs howl at the moon-until one night, a pink-and-purple star pulses above and something stirs inside her chest. When she finally lets out a howl, a familiar voice answers back. It's her brother, Talli. He calls from Howluna, a secret magical moon where dogs go when they pass away. With one leap into a beam of moonlight, Nala begins an unforgettable adventure.
On Howluna, clouds smell like old socks, lakes are shaped like paws, and dogs spend their days diving, digging, rolling, zooming, and living their very best second lives. Golden trash bins overflow with treasures, magical toilets refill themselves (to great delight), and star-hopping dogs light wishes for children back on Earth. Beneath rainbow skies and shimmering waterfalls, Nala discovers a world overflowing with joy, wonder, and the kind of silliness only dogs truly understand.
Written by an imaginative six-year-old, Howluna blends tenderness, humor, and playful absurdity into a comforting, magical reimagining of the afterlife for beloved pets. Paired with painterly fine-art illustrations that glow with emotion and color, this picture book offers young readers both laughter and solace. This book gives dog lovers everywhere a hopeful place to imagine their furry friends living, playing, and having the time of their lives.
Perfect for bedtime reading, conversations about grief and loss, and anyone who believes dogs deserve a little bit of magic after their earthly adventures.
