Through patience and quiet kindness, their friendship becomes a refuge for them…mehr

Produktbeschreibung
Timothy Bell has learned how to disappear. Staying quiet, unnoticed, and unremarkable feels safer than being seen. When the world expects nothing from him, he can finally breathe. During a walk into the woods, Timothy meets Turdle, a small, anxious turtle who struggles to speak and believes he is too slow, too broken, and too different to belong anywhere. Used to being rushed or ignored, Turdle carries his fear like extra weight on his shell. Timothy does not try to fix him. Instead, he listens. He waits. He stays. Through patience and quiet kindness, their friendship becomes a refuge for them both. When Turdle's fear threatens to pull him back into loneliness, Timothy makes a promise and a choice that will change his life forever. How Timmy Became a Bear is a tender story about chosen family, gentle love, and the courage it takes to be a safe place for someone who needs it.

How Timmy Became a Bear has also been selected for Indie Texas, adapted into a feature animation screenplay, and submitted for the Lambda Literary Award.
