Honest feedback from parents, teachers, and young readers.

This book is a great lesson and conversation starter for kids about temptation, listening to your parents. my seven year old really enjoyed it. the illustrations were beautiful and captivating. it felt very relatable because the characters look exactly like us. the book ends with a reminder to not fall for the tricks of sneaky creatures which in retrospect could take form as anyone. including snow bunnies 🀭

This Children's Book highlights the importance of listening too and obeying one's parents. The storyline is stellar and filled with lessons for our little ones to live by. Mostly importantly, the story highlights the need for all if us to learn from our errors. We all of have made mistakes or metaphorically flirted with the Sneaky Snow Bunnies, but in doing so we need to take away lessons from that. Do not flirt with danger or self harm in this dangerous world we live in.....what a great lesson.

If only O.J. Simpson, Tiger Woods, Kanye West, and a slew of other Black men had had this message etched so beautifully and gently into their young minds, maybe things would different! One of the Best! I rank it up there with some the great parables of the Bible that represented the future histories of Black people in America; including "The seed of Abraham", "The Lost Sheep", and "The Prodigal Son"!

This is such an adorable book for young children. It teaches children lifelong lessons about respect, communication skills and trustworthiness. The grammar and vocabulary is pretty good for a children's book. I do think the skin tones of the characters could have been more representative of the Culture being referenced in this book, however, the overall message is excellent.

WOW! Bravo to the writer. Very easy to read. Concise, suspenseful and very innocent. I read to my baby niece and she loved it! What a great refreshing book. And the illustrations were impeccable. Immensely loving, light and innocent read extremely appropriate for children! Bravo to the writer and illustrator. Can’t wait for the sequel.

I love this message about supporting your own and being self-reliant. My son wanted to find a Black business to support after reading this book. It must read for all Black children. Kudos to the author.
