It's so hard to play with other children when you're shy, as one little boy can tell you. He hides under the table when his parents' friends come over, and at school he's too timid to make friends. But when he sees a mysterious girl who hides in the cherry tree every day after school, he wants to be brave enough not to be afraid of her. He gets himself a dog-the bravest dog he can find. And when his new pal takes a liking to the girl, the two become fast friends. She too is very bashful, but now they hang out together in the cherry tree and play every day after school. Though her family will be moving away at the end of the year, they promise to keep meeting at the tree whenever it's cherry time. Here is a beautiful, delicate story about learning to overcome your shyness.
