Sam desperately wants a pet of her own to celebrate her birthday. There is only one problem: her parents have made it completely clear that their apartment is simply too small for a cat or a dog. Hoping for a compromise, Sam visits the Rainbow Street Animal Shelter to look at the smaller animals. She immediately falls in love with Henry, a fluffy black guinea pig who seems like the absolute perfect fit for her family. But while Sam is busy bonding with Henry, she notices something remarkable happening nearby. Her little brother, who usually struggles with his schoolwork, is happily and fluently reading aloud to Nelly, the shelter dog. Nelly sits patiently, listening to every word. Seeing this gives Sam a brilliant idea to help her brother gain confidence. She begins to wonder if there is any possible way a gentle dog like Nelly might be allowed to visit a kindergarten classroom.
