Finn Fox and the Tumbling Tower: A Gentle Story About Anger, Calming Down, and Trying Again (Hardcover) (ISBN-13: 9798256239046)

Some feelings are too big to ignore. This keepsake story shows a little fox how to move through one.

Finn Fox dreams of building the tallest pinecone tower the woodland has ever known. He stacks with care, watches it rise, and feels his heart lift with every pinecone. Then it tumbles. This hardcover picture book for ages 3 to 6 follows Finn's journey from hot, tight anger to calm, connection, and one more brave try.

A LUMINOUS STORY OF BIG FEELINGS

With each collapse, Finn's cheeks grow warmer, his heart pounds harder, and his tail twitches with a feeling that is simply too big to hold quietly. His steady friend Pip Rabbit does not scold or dismiss the moment. Pip stays nearby, giving Finn the space to feel everything he is feeling, safely and without shame.

FROM HOT ANGER TO QUIET PRIDE

Finn moves to a safe patch of ground, stomps three times, and breathes slowly until the heat inside him begins to cool. When he tells Pip honestly that he is still upset but ready for help, the two friends try a wider foundation together. The tower that tumbled again and again finally stands tall, and Finn discovers he can listen to his body, find calm, and try again.

WORDS AND PICTURES THAT LAST

Gentle repetition and soft, rhythmic language make this a story children ask for again and again, while each illustration holds small, comforting details, a steady oak tree, a patient friend, a softening tail, that reward a closer look every time the cover opens.

A KEEPSAKE FOR HOME, CLASSROOM, AND COUNSELING SHELVES

This heirloom-quality edition belongs in family libraries, preschool and kindergarten classrooms, counseling offices, and calm-down corners, anywhere a child is learning that anger can arrive, anger can pass, and trying again is always allowed.
