🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟

Mindful and Informative!

Four Point Five Stars. Beautiful book for older kids.

Ring Tail Raffi from Madagascar is very anxious and he decides to find the Wise Red Owl who can help him handle his anxiety. Comet also helps Ring Tail Raffi on his journey to the Owl. The journey to the Owl and Comet was a lovely read.

Told in rhythmic lines, the Owl describes how to handle anxiety at all stages. The illustrations were beautiful and the fun facts at the end of the book were very informative. Good read for older kids.

Thank you for the eARC Netgalley.

Little Rabbit Wants the Moon by Lauren Kukla

Little Rabbit can’t sleep. His brothers and sisters may be snuggled up beside him, but the glowing moon in the night sky has captivated Little Rabbit, and he wants nothing more than to reach up and touch it.

With warmth and wisdom, she reminds her little one of the unique traits that make him an essential part of the forest family. Then she gently sends him on his own magical journey to the moon by encouraging him to clos...
