Christopher and his cousin Ben are more than just family. They’re best friends with secret club names and big weekend plans. But when Ben becomes sick during a sleepover, Christopher discovers a heartbreaking truth: Ben has leukemia, and he needs a bone marrow transplant to survive. Even worse, Christopher is told he’s too young to help.
Determined not to sit by and do nothing, Christopher finds a way to rally his community and spread the word. With creativity, courage, and a whole lot of heart, he proves that being a kid doesn’t mean being powerless.
Never Too Little is a deeply moving story about chronic illness, advocacy, and the impact children can make, especially when love is their motivation. It encourages young readers to find their voice, take action, and believe that they can make a difference, no matter their size or age.
Perfect for families, classrooms, and counselors supporting children through serious illness in themselves or others.

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.

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!
