When Bella's art skills shine in a poster design contest, she and her pug Bub win a trip to Hollywood! Bella can't wait to meet her favorite star, Missy Pop. Bub will meet his idol, too -- fabulous poodle and actor Pebble Barks. Bub is nervous -- what if Pebble doesn't like him? When Pebble acts too cool for Bub, he's crushed. But with some help from his friends from home, Bub hatches a plan to turn things around. Could Bub become a role model for Pebble instead?

With full-color artwork throughout, this funny and charming diary-format early chapter book is perfect for anyone who believes a furry pal is the best kind of friend.

"The full-color cartoon illustrations, especially of Bub, are adorably expressive and certain to please the age group. A strong, accessible diary story for readers seeking an adorable animal tale." -- Kirkus Reviews

"May's next title in the Diary of a Pug series is a hilarious and heartwarming tale of a dog's first snow... Readers new to chapter books will love the unique diary format and vibrant illustrations." -- School Library Journal

Praise for Pug the Sports Star: A Branches Book (Diary of a Pug #11):

"The lined-paper aesthetic, combined with cartoon illustrations and speech bubbles, gives the book a diary-like feel that is easy for kids to follow.
