Helper Skye shows children the power of persistence, teamwork, and helping others. When Skye Squirrel finds a turtle stuck on his back, he feels frustrated at first—but with help from his friends, he discovers how to turn a tough situation into something worth feeling proud of.
This set includes the Helper Skye book and a purple tail for the My Emotion Squirrel plush, representing pride. Children can use the tail to express that special feeling of doing something good and meaningful—especially when working as a team.
Designed for emotional learning in homes, classrooms, and counseling spaces with children ages 3–8.
As a therapist, Skye Squirrel has been a great interactive tool. Kids are able to learn about and identify different emotions. The changing of Skye Squirrel’s tails keeps them excited, engaged, and involved.

I am an elementary school teacher, and this is a great book to address blindness with my students. It is very kid-friendly. It teaches a great lesson about having compassion and accepting others.

An inspirational story with a message that my family and I will remember for a long time. Great storytelling of a sensitive subject. I highly recommend it!

Grief feels like someone has left you and can be confusing to young children. This story communicates wonderfully that all emotions are okay to feel.

My 10 yr old was struggling one day, and I teasingly told her she needed Annoyed Skye, which lit up her face. She ran and got her My Emotion Squirrel with his “annoyed” tail and gave it a big hug!
