Imaginary friends are real friends.
When Maude moves to a new town, everything
feels…okay. Things would feel just right if only she had a friend.
So, Maude draws a blue puppy and names him Scribbly.
He plays catch, takes naps, but most importantly, Scribbly
teaches Maude the importance of staying true to herself and gives her the
courage to meet new friends—both human and four-legged.
