This animal looked exactly like the description. Absolutely feels amazing to my daughter. She’s in so much more comfort than what she was before and honestly, I thank you.
The photos didnt load in my other review so here ^^
We are currently transferring our stock between warehouses. There will be a delay in fulfilling orders while the stock makes its journey.

A powerful story about the disabilities you can't always see. Little Fox's Hidden Disability follows Little Fox as he searches for something he can't quite find — and discovers, with Mama Fox's help, that some differences are felt, not seen. A story that helps children understand, feel understood, and know that every kind of difference belongs.
Little Fox is searching for something he can’t find… his hidden disability.
As he meets friends who use wheelchairs, hearing aids, and other supports, Little Fox begins to wonder why his difference can’t be seen. With Mama Fox's help, he discovers something important: some disabilities are felt, not seen.
This story helps children:
• Understand hidden disabilities in a clear, age-appropriate way
• Build awareness of others and their experiences
• Feel understood and accepted for who they are
Ideal for young readers, classrooms, and families, Little Fox’s Hidden Disability supports conversations around inclusion and understanding.
Giving Back
For every book sold, a sunflower lanyard is donated to support hidden disability awareness and help someone feel seen.
Written by an autistic author and mum to two neurodivergent children.
🌻 Every purchase of Little Fox's Hidden Disability helps support the Hidden Disability Sunflower. If you have a hidden disability and are in need of a sunflower lanyard, please reach out to us.
