Saturday Storytime with MacKenzie Haley

Our favorite French bulldog, Billy the Kid, is back! Featuring an original song by Dolly Parton, the third book in her New York Times bestselling series follows Billy as he ruffs it out on the dance floor...and falls for his cute dance teacher.

Billy the Kid has done it all. He's moved to Nashville, he's formed a band, and he's rocked from coast to coast. But there's one thing Billy hasn't done...dance on stage. Dancing makes him nervous. And dancing in front of an audience? No way.

That all changes when Billy and his band nab an exciting gig as the opening act for Dolly Parton's Doggy Dance Pawty. Now, Billy is roping his friends into dance lessons. On the first day, he watches dogs whirl and twirl. But one dancer stands out: his dance teacher, Bella, who is as graceful as she is beautiful, with her auburn curls and a voice as sweet as pie.

Soon, Billy is trying to win Bella's attention. But that's difficult when he's stumbling through dance moves and tripping over his paws. Can Billy nail the dance routine and catch Bella's eye, all before the big dance pawty?

In ARLO's grim, mechanical world, every day is just the same.

ARLO powers up, greases his gears, and works on the assembly line like the rest of the robots. But unlike the others, ARLO longs for something different. And one day, a storm changes everything--leaving ARLO to discover, and revel in, the wilderness beyond the factory walls.

Join ARLO as he explores the unknown, learns that home is where the metal heart is, and that something different can be created in many ways. A story about creativity, change, and growing where you're planted.
