Max is sad. Really sad.  His beloved pet dog Noodles has died and he has some big feelings to process. He feels lost in his grief and unsure which way to turn. Shelly steps in to guide Max through these feelings and explore the complexities of life and death. Will Shelly help Max to see how time can help? How can Max make sure he remembers Noodles? Can you really make lemonade when life gives you lemons? Listen to find out.

Highlights include – a groovy call and response duet, a parachute journey and an American folk-singing, Ukulele wielding, teacher.
