Children’s books are the heart of EPIC Outreach.

We share messages of kindness through self-published children’s books that teach about animal adoption, rescue, discrimination, and treating all animals with compassion, even a pig. Each book is written after one of the rescued animals at the farm sanctuary. The stories are true “tails” with positive messages that create change like:

• Encourage kids to read, building readership skills
• Plant seeds of compassion for both kids and adults
• Teach messages of kindness and love
• Elicit critical thinking discussions

​​EPIC Outreach often gives books away to students when visiting a classroom or by donating them to schools. If you would like to sponsor books for a school or classroom please contact Jessie at epicanimals2015@gmail.com.

CHANCE WINGS OF HOPE

Our Children’s book is self-published and all proceeds go right back into the work we do. This book was created as a way to share information to create a more compassionate world for people and animals. It includes talking points and questions to be discussed in a classroom or at home with children and adults.

“A pit bull and a shiny-winged butterfly both know what it’s like to not be liked and to be judged by their outside appearance.  Follow along the true story of Chance, a rescued pit bull, who learns about Fletcher, a monarch butterfly.”​

The book is available for purchase on AMAZON (link below). If you’re a teacher or an animal shelter and would like a FREE copy to add to your Education Outreach Program, please contact jessie@epicanimals.org.

Thanks to our friends at The Academy of Prosocial Learning for including the book in their curriculum that you can download for the classroom.
