About this book
In the little town of Walla Walla, a one-eyed cat named Goldie discovers that love can turn any place into home.
From cozy bookstores and coffee shops to rainy sidewalks, green parks, and starry summer nights, Goldie explores the town one small adventure at a time. She curls up in Dad’s favorite chair, hides in warm laundry, and finds friends in the most unexpected corners—including the hearts of the people who look out for her.
Goldie may be missing an eye, but she is never missing love. Through scraped knees, stormy days, new schools, and big feelings, Walla Walla wraps around her like a soft blanket, reminding children that even when life feels hard or different, there are always “soft places to land.”
Filled with gentle humor, comforting scenes, and tender details locals will recognize, Goldie Loves Walla Walla is a warm hug of a book—a celebration of small towns, strong hearts, and the everyday magic of being known and loved just as you are. Perfect for bedtime, classrooms, or anyone who loves Walla Walla, this story invites readers to slow down, snuggle close, breathe deep, and remember that love is all around, even on the hardest, messiest, loneliest days.
