Lila and Bunny: Learning to Feel Safe Again, A Trauma-Informed Read Aloud

By Suzanne Bell

Lila & Bunny is a tender, reassuring children's book created to help young readers navigate big feelings, hard moments, and the power of safe connection.

Lila is a thoughtful, observant child who sometimes feels scared, confused, or unsure of her voice. Bunny is her constant companion-a soft, steady presence who listens without judgment, offers comfort without pressure, and reminds Lila that she is not alone. Together, Lila and Bunny show children that it's okay to feel afraid, to ask questions, and to take their time finding their courage.

Through gentle storytelling and expressive illustrations, Lila & Bunny creates a safe space for children to recognize their emotions, build trust, and understand that help can come in many forms-through trusted adults, inner strength, and the quiet comfort of being seen.

Perfect for families, classrooms, therapists, and caregivers, this book supports:

Emotional awareness and vocabulary

Conversations about safety and trust

Trauma-informed, child-centered discussions

Reassurance for children who have experienced worry, change, or uncertainty

Lila & Bunny is more than a story-it's an invitation for children to feel safe, believed, and supported, exactly as they are.
