Hello to you and happy book birthday to my latest picture book, Alone Sometimes: Everybody Needs a Hole in the Ground!
In Skylaar Amann’s gentle, beautifully illustrated picture book, two best friends learn that sometimes everyone needs a quiet, safe space to just be.
Ren and Kit are the best of friends, always doing everything together. But when Ren needs some quiet time to herself, she chooses to hide away in an unlikely place. Kit doesn’t understand, but she’s willing to listen and learn. And in the end, they both realize that sometimes, everybody needs a hole in the ground.
Alone Sometimes speaks directly to the need we all occasionally have for a safe space where we can hide away from the frustrations of the world.
If you’ve ever been lonely, sad, stressed out, or just hated everything and everyone and needed a place to get away, I recommend you pick up this book.
People have many different reasons for feeling this way, but I’ve found a lot more people, both kids and adults, feel this way than regularly let on. Perhaps they (or you, if that’s you, too) will enjoy this book!
If you can’t buy a copy, it’s always helpful to ask your public library to order copies. Thanks for your continued support of my books!
Happy Book Birthday!!
