For that, Little Mole is grateful, and for learning along with Little Mole, we are grateful. --Bishop David Alan Bard, Michigan Area of The United Methodist Church "A welcoming, inclusive, and fun tale.

Children will relate to Little Mole's feelings of disappointment and be inspired to turn to their friends for comfort when things don't go the way they planned." --Midwest Book Review "Soft, autumnal illustrations bring the reader to a crisp day in the forest and create an inspiring tale of friendship. At the end of the story, readers can spend time reading additional information on how to create their very own forest feast. Recommended for general purchase for a picture book collection; it not only celebrates autumn harvest holidays, but touches on the themes of disappointment, inclusion, and friendship." --School Library Journal.
