Bookroo's summary

Noodle, a lovable pug, surprises his human, Jonathan, by refusing to leave bed one morning. Instead of their usual adventures, Noodle opts for a day of relaxation, teaching Jonathan that sometimes, a 'No Bones Day' is just what you need. Will Jonathan embrace this unexpected lesson in self-care, or will he struggle to adapt to Noodle's newfound philosophy?

From the publisher

An instant #1 New York Times bestseller! From the creator of the viral “Bones or No Bones” TikTok videos comes a sweet and entertaining picture book following Noodle the pug and his human as they navigate Noodle’s first No Bones Day–a day for being kind to yourself! Noodle is a sweet, silly old pug who enjoys doing all his favorite activities with his favorite human, Jonathan. But one day when Jonathan goes to take Noodle on his morning walk, he finds Noodle still comfortable in bed. When Jonathan lifts Noodle up, Noodle just flops over. It’s almost like Noodle woke up without any bones! Noodle isn’t sick or sad–but he also isn’t interested in going for walks or sitting outside (he will accept snacks, though). Today, all he needs are extra snuggles and belly rubs. Jonathan soon learns that not every day can be a Bones Day, and sometimes a No Bones Day is exactly what you need to get through the week.
