Kind Skye teaches children that kindness isn’t always easy—but it’s always worth choosing. When Skye Squirrel finds his friend Peanut feeling hurt by teasing, he listens with empathy and encourages understanding. But when Peanut teases someone else, Skye must decide how to respond—with frustration or compassion.
This thoughtful story gently guides children ages 3–8 through real-world emotional challenges like teasing, peer pressure, and forgiveness. It encourages ongoing conversations about what it truly means to be kind—even when others aren’t.
Available as a standalone book or bundled with a pink tail for the My Emotion Squirrel plush, representing caring/kindness.
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!
