Barnaby and the Burds

Deep in the peaceful woods lives Barnaby, a kind and cheerful rabbit who loves to help his friends. But every time he says yes when he really means no, a tiny Burd flutters down and settles on his shoulders. At first they feel light - until there are so many that Barnaby can hardly take another hop.

With the gentle guidance of Sagethetortoise, Barnaby learns that real love isn't about saying yes to everything. Sometimes love shows itself in a kind, honest no.And when you care for yourself, your heart grows strong enough to care for others even better.

Filled with warmth, heart, and beautiful illustrations, BarnabyandtheBurds is a timeless story about self-love, boundaries, and the courage to listen to your own heart.

Perfect for family reading, classrooms, storytime, and counseling settings, it gently reminds children and grown-ups that caring for yourself is part of caring for the world.
