Rebekah Sorenson has completed a new book “If I Were a Skunk …” a lighthearted story that shows there is more to skunks than their commonly known stinky spray, exploring how they navigate the world around them every day.

“What do you think of when you hear or think of a skunk?” writes Sorenson. “What if there’s more to a skunk than just being stinky? This book takes a minute to take a walk in a skunk’s shoes and see how cool they can be.”

Published by Page Publishing, Sorenson’s tale is inspired by the author’s desire to encourage kindness towards all creatures, including animals many may not have favorable opinions about, while encouraging looking beyond the surface, building empathy, and considering varying perspectives.

The book is available at bookstores or online at the Apple iTunes Store, Amazon, Google Play, or Barnes and Noble.
