Sneak Peak!

"When Kit the tiny baby beaver is born, they soon discover that they are incredibly special. Kit is a keystone species, who can create spaces for other animals to live in and thrive. But Kit’s peaceful life at Stillwater Pond takes a dramatic turn when a new plant takes over, causing Kit to embark on an epic keystone adventure.”

The book has already been embraced by environmental organizations across Ohio, including the Shaker Lakes Nature Center, the Columbus Metroparks, and the Cincinnati Museum Center, and more. It will be available internationally in the United States, Canada, England, and Australia. This Southeast Ohio launch is an exciting opportunity for the whole family to celebrate nature as part of an international book release.
