ABOUT THE AUTHOR
Brooke Hafs is a two-time Emmy Award–winning journalist. She worked for nearly a decade in the broadcast news industry as a morning anchor, reporter, and producer in Green Bay, Wisconsin, and her time spent in this career field exposed an obvious need for children’s books about mental health. She enjoys backpacking, skiing, and yoga, and nature has always served as an outlet for anxiety and stress while working a demanding job with three young children. It has become Brooke’s mission to encourage people of all ages to utilize the beauty of the outdoors as a coping mechanism for today’s busy and hectic world.
