Public Service Announcement from Squirrel: Tomorrow is March 1

On the first of every month, we give away not nuts -- but our books.

We wrote them to help families start healing conversations.
We wrote them for the grown-ups who are still healing.

And on the first of every month…
our books are FREE
because healing should be accessible to everyone.

Set your reminder. Share with someone who needs this. 💛

Happy Juneteenth! (June 19th)
Children's books are an excellent way to celebrate this holiday with little ones, and the Smithsonian's National Museum of African American History and Culture has a great resource to help families talk about and involve young children in this important holiday.
