Editorial Reviews

This gentle, comforting tale empowers kids to discover light in darkness on their own or with assistance from a warm, guiding hand. In support of this, a discussion guide for caregivers at the end provides simple facts about moles plus discussion questions and useful, empathetic tips to help a sad child find hope... Sweet and reassuring for little moles--and humans too. --Kirkus Reviews

VERDICT With social-emotional curricula at the forefront of education right now, this charming story will find a place in many libraries. --School Library Journal

Emily Dickinson wrote that hope is the thing with feathers. It may also be daffodils, leaves, and butterflies, or the stories shared by a loving mama. A delightful book. --Rev. Dr. David A. Bard, Bishop of the Michigan United Methodist Church

In Little Mole Finds Hope, Glenys Nellist brings us on a journey to hope through the eyes of a delightful little mole. Teaching abstract concepts like hope to young children can be a challenge, and this book has overcome it. I will tuck this one on our family's bookshelf and bring it out when we need a little reminder of what it means to look for the light when the world around seems too dark. --Traci Smith, author of Faithful Families: Creating Sacred Moments at Home and Prayers for Faithful Families: Everyday Prayers for Everyday Life

The perfect resource for teachers to add to units on feelings, seasons, and life cycles. An uplifting story we all need! --Joanna Rowland, author of The Memory Box and Stay Through the Storm

A wonderful story about discovering beauty and light amid sad feelings and dark places, this book is a gift to both children and parents. With adorably vivid illustrations and tangible descriptions of hope that kids will understand, Little Mole Finds Hope will bring love, light, and curious conversations to every family's bedtime reading. --Matthew Paul Turner, author of When I Pray for You, When God Made Light, and When God Made You

This beautiful book will delight and encourage the youngest readers and help them grasp the good news of hope. But it will also touch the hearts, minds, and souls of those of us grown-ups who need reminders that life springs forth from even the muddiest bulbs and barest branches and that light shines bright at the end of even the darkest tunnels. --Caryn Rivadeneira, author of the Helper Hounds series, Grit and Grace, and Grumble Hallelujah

Little Mole Finds Hope is a wonderful and sensitive way to introduce children to the hope that always accompanies sadness. --Bishop Laurie Haller, Iowa Annual Conference, United Methodist Church

With a gentle refrain and illustrations that perfectly fit the tone, Little Mole Finds Hope is a book that children will ask for again and again, and parents will gladly oblige. A beautiful story about sadness and hope. --The Rev. Dr. Kathleen Long Bostrom, award-winning children's book author

Simple, lyrical, and profoundly wise, Little Mole Finds Hope deserves to become a classic in children's literature. I adore this beautiful book and its message of where hope can be found, even in the most unhappy times. --Jennifer Grant, author of Maybe God Is Like That Too and Maybe I Can Love My Neighbor Too
