Our First Children’s Book Is Here! Meet Skylar & Mr. Habits the Rabbit
Some dreams begin with a simple idea. Others grow through years of conversations, creativity, and a shared belief that something meaningful is possible.
For us, this dream began with a question: What if children could learn about the power of their thoughts, feelings, attitudes, and habits from an early age?
After years of imagining, writing, revising, and bringing our characters to life, we are thrilled to celebrate the August 2026 launch of our very first children’s book, Skylar’s Attitude & Mr. Habits the Rabbit!
This is more than the beginning of a book series. It’s the beginning of something we’ve dreamed about sharing with families for a very long time.
We created Skylar’s Attitude & Mr. Habits the Rabbit as a children’s book about emotions and habits, designed to help young readers explore their feelings and discover the power of everyday choices.
Meet Skylar: A Little Girl With Big Feelings
Skylar is a young girl learning something that even grown-ups sometimes struggle to remember: our thoughts, feelings, and attitudes can influence how we experience the world around us.
Like all children, Skylar has moments when things don’t go quite the way she expects.
Sometimes she’s frustrated. Sometimes she’s disappointed. And sometimes her attitude gets in the way of seeing the possibilities right in front of her.
Sound familiar?
That’s exactly why we created her.
We wanted Skylar to feel relatable, because every child experiences big emotions and challenging moments.
And we wanted her story to remind children that having difficult feelings is normal, but learning how to respond to those feelings can make a meaningful difference.
Meet Mr. Habits the Rabbit: A Friend With a Little Wisdom
Every great adventure is better with a friend.
Enter Mr. Habits the Rabbit!
With his lovable personality, signature glasses, and gentle guidance, Mr. Habits helps Skylar discover that small changes in the way we think and act can lead to new possibilities.
He doesn’t expect Skylar to be perfect or happy all the time.
Instead, he encourages her to pause, notice what’s happening inside, and consider the choices available to her.
Through their friendship, young readers are introduced to an important idea:
Little choices, practiced over time, can become powerful habits.
We hope Mr. Habits becomes the kind of character children remember long after they finish reading the book—a friendly reminder that they can pause, reflect, and try again.
Meet Stella the Star: A Little Sparkle Along the Way
And then there’s Stella the Star!
Stella adds a touch of wonder and magic to Skylar’s world, helping bring the story’s message to life.
Together, Skylar, Mr. Habits, and Stella create a colorful world where children can explore emotions, discover new perspectives, and begin recognizing the connection between their thoughts and actions.
We believe meaningful lessons can be memorable, imaginative, and fun.
That’s why storytelling is at the heart of everything we create.
The Message Behind the Story
At Believe II Be™, our guiding philosophy is simple:
What You Believe, You Become.
We believe children deserve opportunities to develop self-awareness, confidence, kindness, and positive habits from an early age.
Our first book introduces a simple but meaningful connection:
Thoughts influence feelings. Feelings influence actions. And repeated actions can become habits.
Of course, children cannot always choose how they feel, and we would never want them to believe they should hide their sadness, frustration, or disappointment.
Instead, we hope to encourage something much more valuable: recognizing emotions, understanding that feelings can change, and discovering healthy ways to respond.
It’s a message for children, but one we believe adults can appreciate, too.
A Story Designed for More Than One Reading
One of our favorite things about children’s books is how the experience can continue after the final page.
A story can spark a conversation at bedtime, encourage a new perspective after a difficult school day, or become a familiar reminder when big feelings appear.
We hope families will enjoy discovering the little details woven throughout Skylar’s world.
Pay attention to how Skylar’s outfit changes with her mood. Keep an eye out for a butterfly. And listen for a special jingle!
There are a few surprises waiting to be discovered along the way.
Most importantly, we hope the story creates opportunities for meaningful conversations between children and the adults who love them.
From Our Hearts to Your Bookshelf
Holding our finished book for the first time was a moment we’ll never forget.
What began as conversations between two friends has grown into a story filled with characters we love and a message we deeply believe in.
We are incredibly grateful to our families, friends, and everyone who has encouraged us throughout this journey.
And we’re especially excited for the children who will meet Skylar, Mr. Habits, and Stella for the very first time.
This is just the beginning of The Skylar & Mr. Habits Series, and we cannot wait to share what comes next.
Thank you for celebrating this milestone with us.
With gratitude,
