  “This is a beautiful story of hope and renewal in the midst of loss. A wonderful lesson for children, that “what is broken can be rebuilt and made whole again, and that wherever we are together, we are home.” The illustrations are wonderful too!”

“For anyone who wants to ensure that little ones feel safe sharing their experiences -- even the hard/scary/uncomfortable ones -- this book is a a gentle lifeline. Between the pandemic, a family upheaval, and the passing of a dear loved one, I've been working double-time to protect my little guy from all the hard stuff.
Fox and Bear reminded me how important it is to BE REAL with my wise kiddo, and model an important Life Truth: The only way out is through, and the people who love you the most want to be there for you always, especially during the hard times...Honestly, this book was just the message *I* needed to hear, and it has already made little ripples in my life and my stewardship of this sweet boy. Highly recommend, especially in these strange and complicated times!”


“I just got my copy of your book! My husband and I read it through tears. I cannot begin to tell you how perfect it is! We’re foster parents and find it so so hard to find books that cover big topics in a safe way. We stay away from books referring to “mom/dad”. We are constantly looking for something with different looking families. Always trying to find good ways to talk about hard things with little hearts. This book steps up to everything we hoped it would be! I’m recommending it to all of my friends! If you ever make another book, I’d be first in line to pick it up! We need more books like this.”


“Fox and Bear gently helps children see how sharing difficult memories with a loved one can ease scary or shameful feelings. It portrays honest emotions and authentic resolutions, sprinkled with humor. The delightful illustrations keep the story warm and comforting, thereby inviting readers to open up to each other. A gem.”


“Fox and Bear is a beautiful story that teaches children how to acknowledge and address their feelings good and bad... The artwork is phenomenal and I highly recommended this children’s book. It could be beautifully used by school counselors, teachers, and parents alike.”


“This book is an amazing tool to help children of every age understand that their feelings, good or bad, are important and should be shared, not hidden. Beautiful illustrations and written in a way that you can easily resonate with both Fox and Bear.”


“Great read to open up dialog with children about feelings and experiences. Lovely addition to any bedtime routine.”


“Beautifully written , gorgeous artwork. A much needed book to add to any collection. It's simplifies difficult emotions and encourages openness of communication!”


“This book is fantastic. I teach Pre-K and I’m looking forward to reading this to my class next year and in all the years to come. It’s a great tool for teaching kids they need to talk about their feelings with someone they trust. The drawings are phenomenal.”


“As a therapist who works with children, I am constantly asked for resources by parents that can aid them in helping their children not only feel safe, but to process emotions. This wonderful, whimsical story of a playful little Fox, and a nurturing and caring Bear will not only draw caregivers and children alike in- but their story and interactions model so many emotions that children often have a hard time identifying or processing...”


“Amazing book with a powerful message. It’s a book about finding your safe person, and telling them your feelings and experiences (memories) instead of keeping them bottled inside. No memory should be hidden away where it can weigh you down! It’s a great lesson for kiddos AND adults!”


“This new book has become one of my kids favorites. They love the art work (which is quite amazing) and the story opens up opportunities to dive into complex life lessons such as memories and dealing with good and bad things in life. Highly recommended to anyone looking for a NEW great children's book which is original in both story and art.
It'll probably become a classic or at least one your family will be asking for night after night.”


“Lauren and Rebecca have created a special type of cozy magic in the book Fox and Bear. It captures your heart with whimsical, gorgeous illustrations and a playful, yet deep and meaningful story...”
