High in the Sonoran Desert, where crickets chirp and cactus grow, lives a tiny cottontail rabbit named Aurora. Aurora is very sensitive to the beauties of nature and to the feelings of everyone around her. She likes to spend time alone, and she worries a lot. Aurora’s brothers and sister tell her she is “too sensitive” and often leave her out of their rough-and-tumble play.
When a flash flood destroys her family’s burrow, Aurora must learn to face her sensitive nature head-on. She meets a spiny lizard, spotted skunk, cactus wren, and javelina, all of whom have lessons to teach her about kindness and self-care. Will Aurora learn to embrace her nature and thrive as a highly sensitive rabbit?
Based on Dr. Judith Orloff’s teachings about living an empowered life as an empath, this beautifully illustrated story teaches us to live with beauty, sensitivity, and joy.
