When Someone New Arrives Lullaby is a gentle story about change, feelings, and choosing kindness.

When Gigi arrives in Charlie’s home, Charlie isn’t sure how to feel. His quiet routine, as a solo pup, is turned upside down. As he starts to understand that Gigi’s arrival is permanent, Charlie must decide: will he see Gigi as a rival… or a friend?

Told as a goodnight lullaby, this story helps young readers understand that it is normal to form quick impressions — and that we always have a choice in how we respond. By focusing on what we have in common, and staying curious about our differences, Charlie learns that acceptance can turn uncertainty into connection.

The first book in a heartwarming series about Charlie and Gigi, two dogs learning how to navigate life, feelings, and friendship together.
