Dig It Out by Katie Spina

Find This Book On Amazon

This is a delightfully entertaining book for children of all ages!  It's a fantastic story about a little groundhog who learns a valuable lesson about self-reliance and confidence.  I loved the metaphor of digging to help little ones understand their power to overcome sadness.

The illustrations are super-cute and are a beautiful compliment to the story.  The colors are vibrant and they dance across the page with energy and light.  The author uses language young readers can clearly understand, without being condescending.  I bought this book as a gift for my niece, Grace (although if her parents read this - keep it a surprise, please!), and I believe it will help her, and her older sister, Allison, to connect with their internal digger and giggle through the discovery.

If you have little ones in your life, I highly recommend this book.  And if you know an adult who is struggling with digging their way out of sadness - I recommend this book even more!
