This reflective podcast explores how forest animals can help children navigate emotions with clarity, trust, and quiet strength — a theme woven throughout Nannette’s emotionally attuned storybooks and educator resources. From Fern’s grouchy morning to the seasonal rhythm of the ABC Forest Animal Book, each story invites young readers into emotionally safe spaces where nature and narrative work together to build emotional literacy. Whether you're a parent, teacher, or fellow storyteller, this episode offers insight into the creative philosophy behind Nannette’s work and the power of animals as companions in a child’s emotional journey. 

Skylar is almost here.

This fuzzy little caterpillar has been whispering her story for a while — and now, she’s ready to be heard. Skylar knew she wasn't meant to be a caterpillar forever, but she didn't know what she supposed to be only that she must be something else.

I’ve just released a short audio preview that captures the heart of her journey as she searches to uncover who she is supposed to be. 

Something Else: Skylar's Story of Becoming  is coming soon. This picture book is written for children ages 4–8, but you don't need to be a kid to enjoy it.

Stay tuned for the official release date, educator resources, and more.
