Previously published as Fiona’s Big Sneeze by Karrie Olech (First Edition, 2025)
Meet Fiona — a sweet little fox with a very big problem. Whenever she sneezes, chaos follows!
In the peaceful forest, her powerful sneezes send apples flying, acorns bouncing, strawberries bursting, and animals tumbling. From drenched ducks to pink rabbits to hedgehogs with very interesting new hairdos — Fiona’s mighty achoos leave the whole forest in a giggling mess.
But no matter how hard she tries to stop them, the sneezes just keep coming. And no matter how much chaos they cause, Fiona’s friends stick by her through every single ACHOOOO.
This sweet and silly story follows Fiona as she tries everything to stifle her mighty sneezes — with hilarious results. In the end she discovers that sometimes the best thing you can do is just let it out — and trust that the people who love you will love you anyway, sneezes and all.
Perfect for ages 3–7, Fiona’s Big Sneeze is a fun read-aloud about kindness, friendship, and self-acceptance that will have little ones giggling from the very first page. A wonderful addition to any social emotional learning collection and a great conversation starter about being kind to yourself and others.
