A boy. A bunny. Dandelion puffs. And a beast that just needs someone to hear him.
A young boy finds a mysterious cave deep in the woods. Unafraid of the darkness, he journeys below the earth, and among glowing mushrooms and veins of gold, he meets a great beast with a fierce hello.
This charming children's book addresses the topic of fear in an utterly disarming manner. A child ventures into a cave and comes upon a scary beast with a very scary roar! What happens next? This story may be written for young children, but it is subtle like a Zen riddle and engaging for people of any age. Your eyes will go wide, you'll giggle and smile, and in the end you'll feel victorious. Both story and illustrations are adorable, pulling you into another world. It's impossible not to fall in love with these characters immediately. Highly recommended for anyone who needs a reminder to be fearless and anyone who is young at heart! (Find the full review here.)

Great kid’s book!
What a GREAT Hero’s Journey for kids! My 3 and 6 year old grandchildren were enthralled. The story is wonderfully crafted and the artwork is rich and expressive. I look forward to more from this talented sister team!

I bought this book for my own enjoyment and hope to share it's message with my many nieces & nephews. The message it imparts through the wonderful illustrations and the keen use of words is one of taking that path "least traveled". If more people in this world of ours would trust in the simplest of nature's creatures and in themselves the whole of creation would dance with the peace and love that would make the our home a better place. Thank you for holding your torch and sharing this hope with all of us.
