LOVELAND, OH -- Little Bird Press is delighted to announce the upcoming release of Let Go, Little Leaf! by Jenna Schroeder, a mother of four, a writer and the Director of Communications for Dolphin Hat Games. This lyrical picture book, which invites children and families to embrace the beauty of letting go and stepping bravely into the unknown, is scheduled to be released this fall.
Schroeder debuted her first book Are Enchanted Forests Real? which was praised for its poetic storytelling, pastel-and-watercolor artwork, and themes of bravery and togetherness, back in 2024. This was followed by her graphic novel Taco Cat Goat Cheese Pizza and the Case of the Missing Hat, based on the hit card game by Dolphin Hat Games that’s sold over 10 million copies, Taco Cat Goat Cheese Pizza. Schroeder also contributed to the 2021 book “Peace in the Presence of God: Devotionals for Women with Anxiety” published by Michael Lacey.
Let Go, Little Leaf! is the first book in the Learn and Grow Series. It is a quaintly illustrated story, illustrations by Arthur Linn, where readers follow the tender journey of a leaf preparing to leave the branch. With heartfelt storytelling and warm, nature-inspired illustrations, this book offers gentle encouragement for anyone facing change—whether it’s a child trying something new, or an adult navigating a season of transition.
"So many of us—children and grown-ups alike—struggle with change,” says Schroeder. “This story is a reminder that letting go is not an ending, but the beginning of something beautiful.”
Printed sustainably in the U.S., Let Go, Little Leaf! weaves together nature, social-emotional learning, and meaningful connection. It also includes a reflective activity for families and classrooms, and did you know leaf facts, making it a wonderful resource for parents, teachers, and caregivers.
Schroeder notes that her new picture book is suitable for age 3+ and is perfect for classroom readings and holiday gifting. The book is currently available for pre-order, and early supporters who pre-order receive a signed copy and a small thank-you gift tucked inside from the author and founder, Jenna Schroeder. In this charming and picturesque news story book, Schroeder writes:
“A little leaf is learning to let go.
To trust the wind.
To believe that falling might just be the beginning of something beautiful.”
The book will be available for order this Fall. ($24.99, ISBN: 979-8-218-80490-9To learn more about Little Bird Press and Jenna Schroeder visit https://www.littlebirdpress.co/ and https://www.jennaaschroeder.com/.
