Book by Local Author Sydnie A. Douglass

Have you ever felt heavy, like you’re carrying rocks?

Everything’s hard to lift, even your socks!

Our strong friend Beet is having one of those days, he feels like he’s carrying ten times what he weighs! Maybe his friends will know what is wrong, or maybe it’s something we knew all along.

Beet’s Long Hike is a colourful introduction to empathy, openness, expressing your feelings, accepting help, and invisible illnesses.
