Rosie Redtail loves a plan.
She has color-coded lists, perfectly tied bows, and a schedule timed down to the very minute. Seven-oh-three: out the woodland door. Seven-oh-four: admire the breeze. Seven-oh-five: walk stylishly, please.
But when a gust of wind sends her careful plans fluttering into the forest, Rosie is left with something she's never quite faced before - an unplanned day.
As she pauses, she begins to notice what her schedule forgot to include:
- A baby bird wobbling in its nest
- A turtle needing a gentle lift
- A shy bunny wishing for a friend
In helping others, Rosie discovers something surprising...
A perfect day isn't built from perfect plans.
It grows when kindness is sown.
Told in playful, rhyming verse and brought to life with warm watercolor illustrations, this heart-hugging story gently reminds children that:
It's okay when plans don't go perfectly.
Kindness makes ordinary days extraordinary.
Sometimes the best moments can't be scheduled.
Perfect for ages 4-8, this sweet woodland tale is ideal for bedtime reading, classroom discussions, and little planners learning to leave room between the lines.
- A strong but gentle lesson about flexibility and kindness
- Funny rhyming text that's fun to read aloud
- Adorable woodland characters kids will adore
- A reassuring message for perfectionists and big planners
- Beautiful soft watercolor artwork on every page
If your child loves animals, sweet humor, and stories with heart, Rosie Redtail will quickly become a favorite.
Because sometimes the day you almost miss...
Is the one you'll remember most.
