Little Sunita and her family are trying to start a new life after a terrible fire. Their home and possessions—including all of Sunita's schoolbooks and toys—burned to ashes in the blaze. Worst of all, their puppy Taro is missing.
Sunita’s parents are busy building their new home, and no one has time to listen to Sunita's worries. But she is lucky enough to have an observant teacher, who comes to her aid. The teacher takes Sunita to meet her doctor friend and she teaches Sunita how to knit a new sleep toy to replace the missing one.
Sunita learns that you can be wounded not only on the outside but also beneath the surface. Fortunately, both can heal.

La petite Sunita et sa famille essaient de retrouver une vie normale après un incendie qui a détruit leur maison et toutes leurs possessions, y compris les livres de classe et les jouets de Sunita. Et pour comble de malheur, Taro, le petit chien de Sunita, a disparu.
Les parents de Sunita sont occupés à construire leur nouvelle maison, et personne n’a le temps de rassurer la petite fille. Heureusement, sa maîtresse se rend compte de sa détresse, et décide de la prendre sous son aile. Elle emmène Sunita chez un ami médecin, et apprend à tricoter à Sunita pour qu’elle puisse se fabriquer un nouveau doudou.
Sunita se rend bientôt compte qu’il existe des blessures qui ne se voient pas, plus profondes que celles qui laissent leurs traces sur la peau. Mais heureusement, ces blessures intérieures guérissent aussi.
