Customer photo review of Skoshie & Friends: "Strange Wild Beings" (Children's Book)

Went to my local farmers market today and met Emely the author and illustrator of this amazing book! Emely is so talented and we are so happy we came across her and her books today! We purchased Strange wild beings and read it tonight to my 7 year old daughter. She loved it and wants to collect all of the books! This book has beautiful art and a great message to teach to your little ones!

Customer photo review of Book 1: "Strange Wild Beings" (signed)

I love the books so much!!

The book was a wonderful story with a great message. The illustrations were great!

Great book to take to my granddaughter when I visit! Then we can read the story. Thanks for the great work!

This is my third time buying this book! I met Skoshie & Friends at RICC and fell in love :) I got the whole set for xmas gifts, as well as a set for my son. Then I bought again to read to my sons class and gift to the class. I love the story and the art is precious for kids and adults

Such a wonderful story series!! We love reading these before bed. Skoshie was an instant favorite.

Kiddos loved the story and images. Such a brave cat just looking for the goodness around her.

Perfect This book is amazing the message within is perfect for children and adults. I’m super jazzed to read it to my class this week! I love it

Incredible Beauty This book is filled with incredible beauty for both children and adults. Each time I read the story of Skoshie, Zeek , and Wisp, I learn something new about all of us in general from the smallest child to the oldest adult. God calls us to step out in faith despite our fears and doubts. This story encourages us to do just that!

Quirky meets Cute Peeped this book at a open market and it's so cute. My sister is having a baby soon so once they start doing books and not the cardboard books will 100% be gifting the wee one this

Just lovely! I just loved it…..I found this “Skoshie and Friends” adventure with Skoshie the cat, Wisp the dragon and Zeek the octopus, a sweet adventure story full of kindness and respect and discovery. It is a great book for kindergarten kids just starting school. It kinda reminds me of Dr. Suess’ book “Oh, the Places You’ll Go” for High School seniors. …..I also love the Skoshie huggable plushy (both make great gifts, especially for the holidays)!!

Let’s go on an adventure! Thoroughly enjoyed this sweet funny quirky story of three unlikely friends and the way they see themselves and the world around them. Positive and encouraging message for children as they grow and explore the world around them. Life is an adventure, and although scary at times, is filled with wonder and beauty. The illustrations add to the wonderment of the story and makes it a definite keeper!

AN INSTANT CLASSIC Fabulous multi-dimensional book having generous brilliant colors to please the eye and a wonderful gentle adventure story that warms the heart - with the great and awesome punch line of page 34! I love it! And now with the introduction of these adorable characters I am looking forward to all the “adventures” of Skoshie and Friends to come!

Children and adults will ENJOY this book! The adventures of these three characters will warm the hearts of adults and children. Each character reflects the lives, challenges, triumphs and discoveries of so many of us young and old alike! The colorful illustrations tie so beautifully with the depth and breadth of this adventuresome story creating a page turner of wonder. I recommend you pick up a copy today for yourself or to read with that child (or child of heart) in your life!

Cute and Meaningful This is such a cute and meaningful story for children. It encourages being brave and acceptance of others who may be different. I definitely recommend this story for little ones. Especially little ones who are a bit shy about exploring new things.

So cute and inspiring! This is a really cute book with a really great inspirational message! The cat, dragon, and octopus are absolutely wonderful!

Such a great story! I love this book! I plan to use this book in my work teach young readers valuable lessons that promote good mental health. I don't know which character I love more! They are so relatable and so stinking cute! Can't wait to see their future book adventures!

Love this book I love the premise of this book! Emely, you have created characters that are so lovable and so relatable. I read this book to my special needs friend and he loved it as much as I did!

Go exploring! It's never too early to teach kids about going out of one's comfort zone, and this story with fun animal characters will have them wanting to find good things to explore.
