Finley the Fox and Her Fluttery Feelings

A Gentle Story About Understanding Anxiety and Finding Calm

Finley the Fox is a bright, curious little fox who loves exploring the forest with her friends. But sometimes, she feels a strange fluttering in her tummy. Her heart races, her thoughts swirl, and she isn't sure why. These “fluttery feelings” can make even the simplest adventures feel overwhelming.
