“Here’s what I like about the Sociable Bunny curriculum. I like that we got to search for chocolates and a bunny. How can you not like chocolate? It was a really good adventure story. I liked how, as a family, we would sit at the table and my mom and dad would talk about stories from their childhood that would match the stories in the book. I learned that I can come to them and talk to the about anything at any time. If I hadn’t done The Sociable Bunny, I would be a sad boy. I experienced a lot of bee stings in my heart this year. But I learned that I’m unique! And that’s a good thing!! I also learned that I can go to my mom and God for comfort when the bee stings happen. Today I’m a very happy boy!”

“Hey everybody. I’m Addison and I’m seven years old. I’m so glad that I had the opportunity to read the Sociable Bunny by Ruth Wilkey. I read it with my grandma that lives in Michigan and it was so special to me that we read it together. We learned things like empathy, encouragement, and perseverance. I loved some of the activities that we also did. I would highly recommend the Sociable Bunny to everyone. Happy reading!”

"We discovered that The Sociable Bunny is way too special to cram into our homeschool day, so we use it to make our Sundays special. Will loves Bunny on the Move! Dad hides the bunny and kisses before church. Will is excited to come home, find the bunny and paste the new word to his poster. We read the short chapter together as a family. Then I ponder the questions in the Hero Mentor Handbook while I fix lunch and Will starts his Activity Book. We share our own stories as we eat. Then I jot notes in my Handbook and Will is free to complete as many activities as he wants in the afternoon. Sometimes his brother helps. It’s fun for the whole family. We’ll be a bit sad when the 18 Steps are finished! "

“I absolutely love this book for young children! The books had a great message that is important to instill at young ages. Start these conversations early and just imagine the positive outcome for this generation! The themes of kindness, acceptance, diversity and self-worth are prevalent in the story and the activities. Even if you don't have young kids, these make beautiful gifts for baby showers, birthdays and holidays!”

“As a single dad, it isn’t always the easiest for me to have spiritual discussions with my children. I have to admit that this book made me tear up on a couple of occasions! The story was great, and the discussion questions were actually easy to discuss!”

“I have two special needs children, and am always looking for resources that are teaching Christian values and also entertaining. The Sociable Bunny story book and activity book were the perfect fit for my kiddos! They sat quietly while we read the story, and then they embraced the activities with energy and enthusiasm! We had so much fun playing hide-and-seek with the bunny, and they loved the chocolate kisses at the end. I’m so glad I found this book!”

“Love is Love. This book reminds kids that they are special because of their uniqueness. You can't read this book without feeling love. Read this to your children before bedtime and send them off to be knowing they are loved and special. This is such a beautiful book for your child or to give as a gift. I love the story, and cannot wait for more to come. Makes a lovely baby shower gift too.”

“After I finished reading this book with my children, I used it for a lesson in my children’s church! My kids and my church kids loved the story of the bunny! It was a great way to talk about God’s kindness and love, and how we must share it with others. I definitely recommend this book to anyone with kids as well as those who work with kids.”

"The grandkids are always heartbroken when we head west in the fall. Now they look forward to our Sociable Bunny Meet-Ups on Facetime every Saturday. Grandpa O has puppets and we make little videos about their new character concept; then send it to them during the week. Sami and James hide each other’s bunnies. It’s a great way to stay connected while we’re apart."

“I read the Sociable Bunny story with my two grandchildren, and I was so blessed to spend this special time with them! They loved the story, and I Ioved the opportunity to discuss God’s love with them as we read together. We don’t get many opportunities to do these things together, and it was a real gift to invest in their faith in this way!”

"I read the Sociable Bunny books with my six-year old granddaughter Addie and it was a great experience. Since we live in different states, we Facetimed and we’d get together approximately once every week. What happened afterward is that we’ve continued to get together and she’s read several other books over the past few months, including chapters in her little pink Bible. I would never be reading the Bible with my 6-year-old grandchild on the other side of the country if it weren’t for The Sociable Bunny! I just want to say how much I appreciate Ruth’s passion for children and her passion for fostering relationships. This was a great experience and I would highly recommend it!"

“As a pastor for 25 years, I am always on the lookout for high-quality materials that can engage our families as they seek to develop the faith of their children. The Sociable Bunny team has put together an outstanding set of resources. The book is entertaining, the activities are fun, and everything is grounded in principles of Godly character. These books are a great addition to your home library as well as your church bookstore or children’s classrooms!”

“I am a teacher, working with children to bring joy and lessons of kindness to them. This book was so helpful as it introduced important values to the children. At home, the story really got my 7-year-olds thinking about how unique and special they are and the importance of treating others with kindness. They really got the message. To learn this lesson at such a young age is a true gift. I highly recommend this book.”

"My class and I started Sociable Bunny about five months ago. This is a great character-building book for my students. It’s a wonderful program and my children are excited every time we turn the pages. I’ve seen changes! I’m sold!
Through the stories and activities and songs and discussions and personal application, I’ve seen a lot of growth and self-realization. They each have a character they identify with, even seeing things they don’t like. One boy said, “Oh no, I’m Bonzo. I’m a bully! I have to fix that.” And he has been doing that indeed and has made a lot of progress. Another child is having a lot of trouble and his parent has discovered the beauty of the Hero Mentor Handbook and is getting ready to do it at home this summer to follow up with what we’re doing in school. Ruth, the author, has endeared herself to my students with visits and spoke to them on line to encourage them with crafts they are making. This is a great program and I would encourage a lot of you out there to look at this curriculum. I’ve been teaching for 54 years and this is a good one!"
