Maddie is a daydreaming fourth-grader with a fear of doctors' offices that dates back to before she can even remember. Her vivid imagination, combined with her worrisome nature, has nurtured this fear. When Maddie's family gets a Golden Retriever puppy named Bella, Maddie's happiness is replaced by panic when she discovers that a trip to the vet is in order. Through Bella's many fun and educational puppy visits to the veterinary clinic, Maddie and her family learn how to raise a healthy and happy puppy, and Maddie begins to view doctors' offices in a whole new light. But will this carry over to "her" doctor's office? Much to Maddie's surprise, in the process of facing her fear head-on, she discovers she has a new passion in her life.
