In the Autumn Forest

A fall storm is coming. Should Fox, Mouse, Crow, and Squirrel worry or not? An autumn seasonal tale centered around community and friendship.

A gentle social-emotional learning picture book for 3-7-year-olds with themes of listening to each other's feelings, showing compassion, and sharing will resonate with young readers.

When a storm is imminent, the animals debate whether something bad is brewing or not. Fox feels it. Crow sees it. And Mouse listens. But Squirrel insists there's no need to panic.

What happens when the sky clouds over and the wind whips across the land? Is there any benefit to a storm after all?

A friendship-driven social-emotional picture book about listening to one other and appreciating nature's gifts. Continue reading about Fox, Mouse, Crow, and Squirrel in the companion book, In the Winter Woods.
