Children's Book
Jumper is a little colt's inspiring journey after being separated from his birth mother who is addicted to a toxic plant. From fear and loss to healing and hope, this book tenderly portrays the complexities of addiction, abandonment, trauma, and healing.
The author lives on a horse ranch and has experience fostering and adopting children, allowing her to masterfully weave this beautiful metaphor. This book helps build bridges, teaching difficult topics without judgement or blame and offers a compassionate view of addiction. It can grow with children through different stages of their life, as they take in layers of wisdom at their own pace. Reading Jumper is a great springboard for discussions on difficult topics for young children and teenagers alike.
Perfect for children with:
* RAD, Reactive Attachment Disorder,
* ODD, Oppositional Defiance Disorder,
* SAD, Separation Anxiety Disorder.
* Abandonment Trauma
While invaluable for those involved with foster care or adoption, Jumper is a powerful tool for teaching EMPATHY and a great addition to any family library. JUMPER IS FOR EVERYONE. Thoughtfully written with deep sensitivity, Jumper shows an example of unconditional love and its power to heal, while validating the anger, pain and confusion that can be brought on by trauma. Young and old will be captivated by this moving story. Whether you are a horse lover or not, you will be by the end of this story!
