Be Wild Be Free Hardcover – Illustrated, October 27, 2020

Loved this book soooo much I purchased one for my friends and will buy more!

I simply love this book and it sits on my living room coffee table. Beautifully written, it makes me think deeper about many of the topics the author talks about in the book. I bought as a gift and decided to keep it to myself. Love it!

I've been following Amber Fossey aka @zeppelinmoon on Instagram for some time now, and her delightful art and thoughtful and oftentimes HILARIOUS words always brighten my day, warm my heart, many times give me a big, big laugh, and really give my general outlook on life a boost, and that's exactly what this book does. Like it says on the back cover - "even grown-ups need picture books." But this is more than just a picture book for adults - it's like an instant pick-me-up, cheer-me-up, 'hey, it's ok,' pat on the back... you get my point. It's a wonderful gift to give yourself, because who couldn't use a little fun and encouragement in this crazy world, but also a perfect gift for a friend who's going through a rough time and maybe you're not sure what to say but want to reach out. Thank you so much for this book, Amber. I hope there will be more! :-)

I absolutely love this book. I've wanted it since it was announced on Instagram and requested it for Christmas from my sister. It's waaaay more wonderful than I could have imagined!! It's been 3 days since Christmas and I've already ordered 2 more copies for some of my best girlfriends because they need it too. This is a book that is meant to be shared. I've laughed with my mom and sister over several of the pages thanks for our Zoom Christmas. As the author puts it, "No woman is an island. My mama, my sister, my best girl friends, all women of fire and laughter and grace, you are my archipelago." Buy this book for everyone in your archipelago, friends.

I stumbled upon her shop on Etsy and laughed out loud by myself in the waiting room at my doctor’s office. I was so excited to see she had a book, and I ordered it and sent it to my sister. I haven’t seen the book, but my sister loved it. If you haven’t gone to her Etsy shop, do it! It’s guaranteed to put a smile on your face! Oh, and buy her book too :)

Ever stumble upon something so extraordinary that it makes you feel happy to be alive? Makes you forget, if even for a moment, all of the chaos?Perhaps it’s that piece of art that you can’t shift your eyes from...or that piece of chocolate that you keep cramming into your gullet...This book is that.It’s so clever and beautiful. It’s mesmerizing and wholly decadent. I can’t stay out of this book.I love it so very much. Each and every character. Every profound and silly message.I will cuddle it tonight and imagine that it was written specifically for me.

This is such an amazing, cute, quirky, honest, and funny commentary on life experiences. The illustrations are outstanding. I purchased as a gift and then purchased another one for myself!!

I’m not wild for the language on some pages but that’s a very minor issue because the book and the artist are just wonderful! I wouldn’t give it to younger kids because of the language but it’s perfect for adults or older teens - it’s so funny, sweet, encouraging, comforting.... just everything good! I wanted to buy one for basically everyone I know!

I pre-ordered this as soon as I heard about it because I follow the artist on Instagram and I know how talented and witty she is. I haven't been able to shelve it after reading it because everybody in my family wants to read it, although one member has purchased her own copy. Amber Fossey, the artist, is a very compassionate human being who loves animals and cares deeply about those who have not been very fortunate in life. This shines through in her humor and in her superb watercolor paintings of the animals she loves so much. I highly recommend this book, and I also recommend following her at @zeppelinmoon on Instagram.

This book makes me so happy 🤗. So funny and such adorable drawings. I pick it up to read through whenever I’m feeling down.

Loved it 110%. Messages are so lovely that I read it to my kids, despite a couple hilariously placed swear words.Stellar!!

This book is funny, heart warming and a must read. 💕

Such a beautiful funny inspiring amazing quirky book, at first I thought it was a book for younger people and was feeling a bit silly buying it for myself, then I received it and read it straight away, it's amazing and definitely not a kids book (swearing In it) the pictures are just beautiful and creative, it's funny and sad and has such a lovely message, I'm going to read this at least once a week as it's such a lovely message and one I'd like to live by l, what a talented author
