Ollie the Overthinking Owl: Maple Shade Stories #3

Meet Ollie - the wisest feathered friend in Maple-Shade Woods... until too many "what-ifs" clog his mind.
When a storm traps young animals on Pebble Isle, Ollie must face his biggest challenge yet: trade perfection for good-enough action.

Written for thoughtful, anxious, or neurodivergent children (and their grown-ups!), Ollie the Overthinking Owl gently teaches kids how to pause spiraling thoughts and turn worry into wisdom using Ollie's calm, repeatable strategy - S.O.A.R.

✅ S - See the real picture
✅ O - List your Options
✅ A - Act on the best one
✅ R - Review and learn

With soft watercolor illustrations and a companion Parent Read-Along edition, this book is a loving tool for any family that knows what it feels like to get stuck in decision loops or freeze when choices feel overwhelming.

Perfect for bedtime, classrooms, counseling sessions, or moments when your child just needs to hear:

"Your thoughtful mind is not too much - it's a gift."
