Peek Inside Little Mole’s Little Gift, the next in the series!
I cannot wait to see this book in person…won’t be long! ( I pre-ordered mine a few months ago.) I am looking forward to this new series with such an adorable little creature. Congratulations, Glenys, on constantly re-inventing yourself…reaching new audiences while still entertaining all those of us who love your publications!
Oh, Carol! Thank you for blessing me with your constant support and encouragement! I’m emailing you the Activity Pack now!
This book looks delightful. Though I think all of your books are. Favorite woodland creature?? Mmm. I am no a fan of skunks but somehow I think you could make him endearing 😊
Hahaha Jeanne! It’s so funny… when I first pitched the books, my editor wasn’t too sure about the charm of a mole either! But who wouldn’t love him? Thanks for entering, Jeanne.
I have never read the books but I would love to start. 3 grandchikdren, Sunday school class and my 4 K class at school. I hope I win the book cause I have so many to share it to.
What a blessing to be surrounded by so many little ones, Alexis! Thanks for entering!
Looks like such a cool book! We all need a little hope!
Today I choose an owl.
Aww, who doesn’t love owls?
I know a little three year old girl who would love to add this book to her “Glenys” collection ❤️!
Oh, thanks so much, Joanne!
Favorite? That’s a hard one. I think raccoons. They look sweet and cuddly. They are relentless and creative! I commented on FB and shared, too.
Can’t wait to see this book in person.
Thank you so much Jean! I love raccoons too..they are so cute!
I’m new to Instagram. How do I enter there? Jean
I just sent the post to you there! Just like and comment on it and tag a friend or two for extra entries!
While love most animals, my favorite is the raccoon. It is basically my family mascot (, my maiden name was Kuhn)
That’s so cute, Sherry! Thanks for entering!
I can’t wait to see this book and I’m anxious to explore more of your work. Hope is one of my favorite things to talk about with children. Favorite woodland animal? Right now my heart is with the woodland creatures in Australia, so today I have to say the Koala.
Kat
Thanks for entering, Kat, and for reminding us of the plight in Australia. If anyone needs hope right now, it’s those living there.
Kat, I’m thrilled to let you know that you are one of the winners! Please send your address to glenysnellist@gmail.com
I’m thrilled for you! I can’t wait to meet Little Mole and enjoy his adventures! My kayaking group “The Happy Yakkers” each have a woodland animal nick name. Eagle, Bear, Racoon, Chipmunk, Skunk, Owl, Eagle, Snail, Squirrel and Fox …so far…no Mole😉. My favorite woodland animal would be Squirrel – that’s Kathy Patterson 😁.
Hahaha! How cute is that, Johanna! I love it!
Oh Glenys you did it again. I love your books and all your writings. Even the curriculum which started all the writing. My favorite animal is the bear. He just lumbers along doing his thing unless something gets in the way. He is only protecting what is his.
Aww, Pam! I never thought of the bear! yes, your’e right…he definitely lumbers! I have many happy memories of writing that curriculum and working on it together!
My favorite woodland animal would have to be a woodpecker. Future book about not giving up??…chipping away little by little until we reach full circle?? Love your books!!😊
Ooh, now there’s an idea! Thanks for entering, Stephanie!
Maybe a squirrel!
I love squirrels too, Anna! Thanks for entering!

Super congratulations, Glenys! I love hedgehogs. They are so darn cute! And I’m so excited for your new book about Little Mole!!!!
Thank you so much for all your support, Nancy!
Your book sounds delightful, Glenys! I’m sure my grandchildren would love it. My favorite woodland creature is a chipmunk.
Aww! Who doesn’t love chipmunks! They are so cute! (And there’s one in the next Little Mole book!)
Good luck with your new book, Glenys! Love the illustrations and positivity!
Thank you so much, Charlotte. I am blessed with an awesome illustrator!
Hi Glenys! I read about you on Nancy I. Sanders’ blog and am looking forward to reading your new book! Congratulations! Please enter me in your drawing. I shared this post on my Facebook page. 🙂
Hi Heather! Thank you so much for sharing this post! Double entries for you!
Skunk and deer come to mind! Chipmunks and squirrels are so cute, too! I need to learn more about them though. Your book looks amazing!
Thanks so much for entering, Annette! No one has said deer yet!
Looks great!
Thank you so much, Sue!
This looks like a really sweet book. Thanks for telling me about it. My favrite woodland creature — ha! I can’t pick one. I love so many!
I’m with you, Rosi! They’re all adorable! Thanks for entering!
I’m,m going to be different and pick the possum (opossum) because of their ability to fool us! We had one visit us last summer and it truly did pretend to be asleep several times. I just shared this post on Facebook.
Blessings!!
I love opossums too! Thanks so much for sharing, Connie!
The illustrations are awesome! This sounds like a wonderful book!
My favorite woodland creature would be raccoon, opossum, skunk, just to name a few. These 3 visit my yard daily as I live by a golf course. They like to partake of the cat food I leave out for the neighborhood kitties.
Cynthia, when we lived in England we would put cat food out and have a ‘fox watch’ at night. It was wonderful! Thanks for entering!
My favorite woodland creature is the tree squirrel.
I shared on my FB page.
Thanks so much Lauralee. I love tree squirrels too!
This is my favorite line …“Sometimes hope is hiding in the darkness . But it’s always there. You just have to find it.” What a wonderful message, I always thought the raccoon was so cute…what a special face. Now after battling them for my bird seed I am not so sure.
Thank you for your kind words Charlotte. I do think that’s true about hope…it sometimes so hard to find, but it’s always there. Good luck battling those racoons!
Thanks for the chance to enter your giveaway! 🙂 I love your work & the illustrations are lovely.
My favorite woodland creature would be birds; specifically, Eastern Bluebirds. If birds are not considered a woodland creature then, maybe bunnies would be another choice. I plan to share your blog/giveaway on FB.
Diane, absolutely birds are woodland creatures! And I love birds! Thanks for sharing.
Your book looks adorable. My favorite woodland creature is a squirrel. Love watching their acrobatics.
Thank you Angela! I love watching those acrobatic squirrels too!
I like chickadees. 🙂
Your book sounds very cute and I’m looking forward to reading it!
Thank you so much Sara! I love chickadees too!
This book looks so sweet! My kids would love it. I think I’d say fawn.
Oh, yes, Emily! Fawns are so cute! Thanks for commenting and entering!
What a wonderful book with a wonderful theme!!! Everyone, regardless of age should read this….such a life’s lesson!!
Favorite animal?? Whooooo else? Mr. Owl
Awww, no one thought of an owl yet! Thanks for your kind words, Sharman, and for entering!
I think my favorite is a fox!
Good choice Trine! Thanks for entering!
This looks so precious! 🧡🧡
My favorite woodland creature is a squirrel, hands down. I love the way they flit around and their talks are always flapping and they like to talk about what’s happening around them. I love the woods!
I love them too, Fayelle!
My favorite woodland creatures are squirrels. I feed them out back and have regulars who live around and visit daily. I followed, like, shared and tagged friends on Instagram and Facebook.
Wonderful, Dana! That’s multiple entries for you!
Love watching deer
Me too! But we don’t get many where I live! Thanks for entering!
Congratulations, Glenys. This book will surely give hope to kids (and readers). And, the lovely illustrations enhance your beautiful message! As for favorite woodland animal, I don’t know…I live in Maine and am surrounded by nature’s beauty. Maybe the sighting of a bald eagle flying over or the doe and her twin fawns.
Mona, how wonderful that you get to see bald eagles! I live in the city and don’t see them very often. Thanks for commenting and entering. (I love your name.)

What a unique concept for discovering hope in a dark place! I love it!
Thank you so much, Sonja!
Hi Glenys…I just realized that I hadn’t commented here on your website. I think this book is just so adorable and such a learning book for children, too. I love animal stories!
My favorite woodland creature….you WILL NOT believe this…but it’s a skunk! I have always, always loved their aroma and sniff with great delight when we’re traveling along and realize one has been by! I think I even put in some extra sniffs just to make a point. LOL!
No one can believe I’m being honest! When my 11-year old grandson found out I liked skunks a few years ago, he told me he would NEVER EVER forget that!
Maybe I’ve just given you an incentive to write a future book about the lovely skunk. (But I won’t hold you to that! LOL!) 🙂
Deb, that is so funny! I think skunks are cute too, but you’re the only person I know who actually likes the smell! You should check out the skunk illustration in this book…I think you’d love it! https://www.glenysnellist.com/cover-reveal-times-two-plus-your-chance-to-win-these-two-new-titles/
Glenys, thanks for that link! I hadn’t seen those posts. You’ve already given some great credit to skunk daddies! LOL! Yay!
Thought you might like that!
Looks like such a cute book 📚 my kiddos love raccoons 🦝
Thank you, Christina! Easy to see what they love raccoons!
My favorite woodland creature is the squirrel. I love to watch them bury their food.
Me too, Regina! Thanks for entering!
My favorite woodland creatures are chipmunks, so small and beautiful!
Looking forward to your “Little Mole” book. Everyone needs HOPE!!
Yes, Lane! Everyone needs hope!
I adore this! Thank you for the gifts your share so beautifully!
Oh, thank you so much Kate. Your words just blessed me!
Oh, my! Such sweetness! I look forward to reading LITTLE MOLE FINDS HOPE.
I commented on your Author FB wall and shared as a tweet on Twitter, tagging a writerly friend.
Thanks for your kind words and for your multiple entries Suzy!
I love all the creatures, especially the birds. Can’t wait to read about Mole!
Thanks so much, Johanna!
Love to look for deer with their gentle ways and squirrels with their comical actions.
Jan, I just got back from a walk and saw three deer standing right close by me in the dark!
This book looks adorable! I am in love with your books.
Oh, thank you so much Christine!
Glenys, this is beautiful, a treasure for sure. Glad to discover you and your books.
Thank you so much Damon.
