Description
Meet Luna Baboona, a fluffy white dog with a very favourite blue ball.
When Luna heads into the backyard ready to play, she doesn't expect a bold little squirrel to swoop in and claim her treasured toy! What begins as frustration and possessiveness soon turns into something much bigger, as Luna faces an unexpected choice: protect what's hers, or listen to her heart.
The Adventures of Luna Baboona: The one with the Squirrel is a warm, gently told story about big feelings, empathy, and learning to share. Through a moment of kindness and an unlikely friendship, Luna discovers that compassion can open the door to connection, and that sometimes, the best games are played together.
Perfect for young readers navigating social-emotional learning-and the caregivers who support them-this tender tale celebrates understanding, generosity, and the magic that happens when we choose kindness.

Emillia Beatrix is an early childhood educator with over twenty years of experience supporting young children as they learn to understand their feelings, relationships, and sense of self. With a strong focus on social-emotional development, Emillia has long used stories as a tool to help children navigate life's everyday challenges with confidence and compassion.
Inspired by the many spontaneous stories born from teachable moments in the classroom, The Adventures of Luna Baboona: The one with the Squirrel grew out of Emillia's belief in children's innate capacity for empathy and kindness. Her passion for children's literature and her deep respect for young learners of all backgrounds shine through in this heartfelt debut.
This is Emillia Beatrix's first illustrated children's book. It is her hope that stories of unexpected friendships like Luna's will encourage children to hold onto their curiosity, generosity, and childlike enthusiasm as they grow and pursue their dreams.
