I've got another picture book for y'all! This one is a lovely exploration of families with a non-binary parent (and some bonus pages of explanation and resources in the back of the book). 🏳️‍🌈

It's a good day to post this one I guess, but I didn't plan that. It's just the next book I have on my queue to post about. Sometimes, I look organized by accident 😂

Does your little one call out after lights-out every single night? 😔 You're not alone — fear of the dark is one of the most common (and exhausting) parts of early childhood.
The good news? It's actually a sign their imagination is growing. 🌙

I got this book for free 😃 It's an incredible, fully illustrated, children's book about an old growth tree in an ancient forest & the wildlife, flora & mycelium, which all support each other in the ecosystem.

A Tree in the Ancient Forest by Carol Reed Jones & illustrated with drawings by Christopher Canyon.

A really wonderful, educational book that all ages would enjoy & appreciate. This was a fabulous #FreeBook score 💚 It doesn't fit inside my little free library so I'm gifting it to a nearby community center's children's library 😊
