Hi Shanna,
Thank you so much again for reading to our class and providing the workshop. My students adored the story, and the meaning definitely resonated with them. This particular group of kids has a lot of big emotions this year, so having some tools to help them navigate those feelings is imperative. My students and I loved the fun, positivity, and creativity that the entire workshop brought to our classroom. They were so excited to show their grown up's the paper foxes they created, and some have been using theirs as a bookmark because they love it so much!
More of a personal note, I was so inspired by your story and workshop because I am in the very beginning stages of writing my own children's book; also one that is SEL based! It was so cool to see how you really developed your experiences and ideas into such an incredible story and now use it to help students, children, and teachers!
Thanks again,
Gabrielle L.
