Pixie and the Fox

Pixie loves to laugh. She loves to shine. She is free… until she meets a charming Fox who leads her somewhere dark.

At first, it feels like an adventure. But soon, Pixie finds herself deep inside a cave — far from home, far from herself. The Fox’s words have made her forget how to laugh, how to fly, how to feel like Pixie. She’s stuck, and scared, and alone. But little by little, she finds the courage to trust her own voice again. And that’s when the light begins to return.

Pixie and the Fox is a powerful story about losing yourself — and finding your way back. Inspired by my own experience with unhealthy relationships, this beautifully illustrated book helps kids (and their caregivers) talk about big feelings, inner strength, and what it means to feel safe and respected in our relationships.

It’s a meaningful resource for families, schools, and therapy spaces — and a gentle reminder that our light is never gone. Sometimes we just need help finding it again.

“A kid's book about intimate partner violence told in a gentle way? Sign me up. The cunning Fox loves the shiny, magical Pixie but slowly, the Fox tries to dull her shine until she is a shadow of her former self. Great for intimate partner violence prevention but wide enough to also include toxic friendships (which many, MANY women can tell you is as harmful as a toxic relationship!). A beautiful resource that you should definitely get your hands on. I will certainly be using it in my work. Gorgeous illustrations, too!”

Now available as audiobooks 🎧

I’m so excited to share that Pixie and the Fox is now available as an audiobook! You can listen in two different ways:

  • Straight Read-Through — a simple, beautiful narration of the story.

  • Read-Along Version — an homage to my childhood, listening to storybooks on my Fisher Price record player, where you can follow along as the story is read. (this version comes with a pdf of the book)

You can find the audiobooks on many popular platforms including Spotify, Nook, and my personal favourite, Libro.fm. (Libro.fm supports independent bookstores, which makes it extra special.)

A note about Audible: I’ve chosen not to make my books available on Audible/Amazon because of their monopoly in the audiobook industry and my personal opposition to their business practices.

You can sign up for a monthly membership  on Libro.fm and receive one audiobook credit per month, purchase them a la carte, or you can find these on your preferred audiobook app.

Wherever you listen, I hope these stories bring a little bit of magic to your day.

HUGE thanks to my sound engineer for the project, Warren Frank!
