"My 7 year old girl is a little stress bucket, poor thing. We both loved this book! It is so relatable and the wisdom is easily practiced in your everyday life. She has even painted pictures of capybaras at school; I know it is resonating with her! My other child, even though not as much as a stress bucket, also loves the book and loves talking about how to do what Cappy suggests. Absolutely recommend for any little in your life! I sure hope there is a second in the series!" - LLB (Amazon Customer)
"My sweet toddler loved this book and has asked us to read it over and over! I am thrilled to have a book to help us have the hard conversations and navigate through those bad days. Sometimes we just have to let our hearts "feel the ache" before we can move on. 10/10 recommend." - Ruthies (Amazon Customer)
"I just finished reading Stressie Tressie, and I absolutely loved it! The story is full of life lessons from a friendly capybara and will help young readers (and adults) find the good and beauty through any circumstance. The illustrations are vibrant, colorful and absolutely adorable, and truly bring the story to life. This book is a must-read for anyone looking for a little courage and positivity in their lives." - Hillie Jeffrey (Amazon Customer)
"When we started reading this story, our three children stopped playing and were immediately entranced by Tressie and her journey with the Capybara. The story is heartfelt and fun with insightful messages about navigating life's challenges. The rhyming scheme is playful and delightful to read!" - Kate (Amazon Customer)
"I read this book to my four children. It was a delightful story that focuses on poor, sweet Tressie and how she deals with her stresses, or didn't, until she met her new friend, the Capybara. I loved and appreciated the coping mechanisms that Capy taught the little, overwhelmed Tressie in the story. As a bonus, the illustrations are beautiful and the colors are very calming and soothing, which is a lovely compliment to the overall message." - MomofWildThings (Amazon Customer)
"Adorable children's book that is fun to read but also promotes healthy mental health when it comes to stress! Very clear and understandable moral of the story for little ones! Cute illustrations that pair well with the story! I hope the author has more books, I kind of want to get to know the capybara!!!" - SCK (Amazon Customer)
"What a sweet story about such an important topic. All kids stress and this book helps little ones by pointing out the "pink flower among the weeds." Not only is it educational but also has super catchy rhymes that engaged my children (and that's not easy!). Love this book!!" - NASA (Amazon Customer)
"As the father of three kids with big emotions, I love everything about this book. The wise Capybara's counsel encourages us to sit with our feelings for a bit, then when we are ready, find a small thing to work on and accomplish. That message pops when combined with outstanding illustrations and engaging rhymes. I guarantee this will be read time and time again in our home!" - Ryan (Amazon Customer)
"What a great little book with a fantastic message. Sweetly teaches children (and dare I say adults too) how to work through the emotions that come with life's challenges and disappointments. Love the fun rhymes and adorable illustrations! Bravo!!" - DMcDonald (Amazon Customer)
