My rating: 4 of 5 stars

A great collection of stories designed to teach children lessons about social and personal issues they may be experiencing. I enjoyed the mix between human characters and animal characters (orphaned horses, squirrels, lions) refreshing. My favorite story was “Catch Your Thoughts Before They Ruin Your Day,” because that story even transcended to me as a an adult, yet still connects with kids, about having a positive outlook and growth mindset. Overall, the stories were stories and not just preaching a lesson, which I have seen in other anthologies.

As a side note, I found “Tonight is the Night” story about bedtime fears to not fit in with the age range/topics covered in the rest of the stories- which I could see 6-9 year olds relating to.
