NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER • From the legendary queen of country music Dolly Parton comes a story about her god-dog, Instagram personality Billy the Kid, who hopes to make it big as a country music star in Nashville.

“Music takes center stage and bullies get properly pun-ished in this hearty and wholesome howl.”—Kirkus Reviews

French bulldog Billy the Kid was born with an ear for music. And not just any music—he loves barking to the beat of country music! So, in order to pursue his dreams, Billy sets out to Nashville to sing his heart out.

But when he meets some big bullies at the Battle of the Bow-wows, Billy worries he's barking up the wrong tree. He'll need his favorite songs ('Jowlene' and 'I Will Pawlways Love You,' of course), a group of scrappy new friends, and his favorite country music star to regain self-confidence and be the star he always knew he could be.

Warm-hearted and funny, this delightful picture book about standing up to people (and dogs) who put you down and finding the drive to achieve your dreams is one the whole family will enjoy.
