"This book is amazing! It does a wonderful job introducing privacy, body consent, and when to seek help from a trusted adult. We bought it for our almost 7-year-old daughter, who has high anxiety, and shared it with her therapist first. Her therapist agreed that it opens the door to important conversations in a clear, age-appropriate way."

"I’m honestly surprised by how much my kids love this book! We’ve read it at least 10 times since it arrived yesterday, and it has already sparked so many meaningful conversations. It’s a gentle, age-appropriate introduction to kindness and empathy for young kids, including how our actions can affect others."

"This story was perfect! The bold, beautiful colors, catchy rhymes, and zoo setting immediately captured my grandson’s attention. He is 6 and struggles with anger, but he really engaged with the story and loved noticing the coping tools, like deep breaths and animals doing yoga when upset. It opened up such a sweet, helpful conversation."
