Review Detail

Squirrel is amazing at stitching and fixing things, but he needs to get ready for the upcoming winter. As word of his skills is passed from neighbor to neighbor, everyone needs something fixed and now know who to go to. While Squirrel loves helping his friends, he grows stressed because winter is getting closer and he keeps getting interrupted every time he tries to gather things. All his friends promise to help him, but will they come through in the end?

FIX AND STITCH is a children's picture book that teaches kindness and how rewarding it is to help others. The overall friendship theme is heartwarming and I love how the animals all are different species. The illustrations are soft and beautifully detailed. Even though Squirrel knows he has a lot to do, he pauses to help his friends. He puts others before himself and this is something children can learn from. The world would be a much better place if there was more kindness.


Final Verdict: I would recommend this to children aged four and up who love reading about animals. This is a sweet story that should be shared with others.
