Haven by Megan Wagner Lloyd

One of our favorite quotes from Haven by Megan Wagner Lloyd is… “You don’t have to be big to be brave.” This book has love, adventure, and a whole lot of grit from a little cat that does not quit. Haven is on this journey to help Ma Millie, her human, who is very sick. She summons all her courage to venture outside to find the nearest neighbor, Jacob Levan, unfortunately he’s not home. This forces Haven to trek into town, a daunting feat for this fearful feline, but fortunately she meets a fox who volunteers to lead the way! But can the fox be trusted??? “Today’s biggest challenge will be the river,” the fox informed Haven. “Tomorrow, the ravine.” “What’s a ravine?” Haven asked. This delightful duo invites the reader to join the journey. “What’s a home?,” asked the fox. “A home is a place that’s just yours…where you’re safe.” “Life’s not safe…All the forest is my home.”  Haven struggles to keep up with the fox as they journey through the forest, whenever her strength fails she focuses on rescuing Ma Millie. There is one danger the fox never tells Haven about…a bobcat is tracking them!  What a wonderful mix of adventure, friendship, resilience, and purpose! Let’s join the boys for as they recap this beautiful book! Thanks to Aimee & Brody for recommending it!
