Milo the Moss is Joining a Mighty Big Cause ๐ฟ๐
It is hard to imagine how daunting it can be for a child to spend days, weeks, or even months in a hospital room. When the world feels overwhelmingly large and scary, sometimes the best remedy is a safe, quiet place to escape into a good story.
I am incredibly honoured to collaborate with fellow children's author Brandi Filer and a wonderful community of independent authors for the Books for Brave Kids book drive. Together, we are working to send books directly to the young patients and families receiving care at St. Jude Childrenโs Research Hospital.
Milo might just be a small patch of moss, but if there is one thing he knows, it is the power of offering a soft, cozy spot to rest during a difficult journey. I am thrilled to share that all 5 books in the Milo the Moss seriesโfrom Milo the Moss and the Mighty Big World to Milo the Moss and the Warmest Giftโare officially on the drive's Amazon Wishlist!
How You Can Help:
๐ฟ Donate a Book: You can visit the Books for Brave Kids Amazon Wishlist (link in comments) and purchase a book. It will be shipped directly to St. Jude!
๐ Share the Love: If you aren't able to donate right now, simply sharing this post helps immensely. You never know who might see it and be moved to contribute.
A single book might seem small, but to a brave child facing unimaginable challenges, it can mean a moment of laughter, comfort, and hope. Thank you so much to Brandi for organizing this, and thank you to everyone who joins us in spreading a little more kindness, one story at a time. ๐โจ
