By Michaele Razi

Drake the Super-Excited, Overeager, In-Your-Face Snake follows an enthusiastic snake who loves playing with his friends and showing affection, especially through big hugs. The problem is that Drake doesn’t always ask first, and his friends don’t always want to be hugged. When his eagerness begins to make them uncomfortable, Drake learns that being a good friend means paying attention to other people’s boundaries and asking before entering their personal space.

With humor and relatable characters, the story introduces young children to consent, body autonomy, healthy communication, and respect in a positive and approachable way.
