It's back to school for Jacoby, a therapy dog. He knows his job but can't help feel a little anxious. With the help of Madame Ève, he will meet the challenge just fine. And with his big heart, he will prove to be a great support for little Jacob, who has moved from Alberta. A dog at school might be unusual, but it can sure make a world of difference!
