A sweet chapter book for young readers.

Sofia loves to explore the forest with its welcoming animals and lovely wildflowers and trees. Join her adventures as she meets friends and learns some unexpected lessons along the way.

Charmingly illustrated by Kim Gatto, I Did Not Know That by Suzanne Searcy Johnson celebrates the beauty of nature, the companionship of animals, and the importance of accepting and caring for ourselves and others.

“While my 7-year-old enjoyed the beautiful illustrations and the talking animals, I enjoyed the timeless life lessons embedded within the plot. I would recommend this book for young elementary students!”
– Stephanie Seferian, host of the Sustainable Minimalists podcast and author of Sustainable Minimalism: Embrace Zero Waste, Build Sustainability Habits That Last, and Become a Minimalist Without Sacrificing the Planet

“I recommend sharing this quick read with elementary school children. Let’s raise children to be kind, treat others with respect, be happy with who they are, and realize it’s okay not to be okay.”

“From the cradle to the grave, in his needs as in his pleasures, in his conception of the world and of himself, the man of modern times struggles through a maze of endless complication.”

Sharing his timeless observations, Suzanne Searcy Johnson infuses poetry and commentary into selections from Wagner’s book, The Simple Life, making this profound treasure accessible to today’s reader.

“In this gorgeous collection, Suzanne Searcy Johnson’s words soar. Reflecting on the human experience from the most trivial to the most ecstatic to the most tragic, the poet is unafraid to explore the depths of raw pain, loss, and hate. Yet, ultimately, her work is threaded through with a boundless love and hope that is deeply moving, extraordinarily encouraging, and even life-changing.”
– Joy Jordan-Lake, #1 Amazon bestselling author of Echoes of Us, A Tangled Mercy, and Under a Gilded Moon
