Why Camp Bennett Loves Author S. S. Coulter
A Personal Note from Meredith
Will and I are very intentional about the voices we let into our home and the stories we put in front of our children. When we discovered Fassa Tails, it wasn't just another book series—it was a breath of fresh air.
Our kids are officially hooked. Between the vibrant illustrations and the rich character arcs, my children are constantly asking for Fassa Tails. I love that S.S. Coulter builds heart, mind and body activities, plot twists, and previews of the next book in the series directly into the books. Each book deepens their reading comprehension and keeps them immersed in the story long after my part in reading it to them is over. Shannon challenges them with big words and complex ideas, never talking down to them, but always keeping them enchanted.
But as a mom, what I love most is the Trust. I know that whether my kids are reading the books or listening along to one of Shannon’s read-along story narration audio tracks on YouTube, they are in a safe space. In a world where it feels like every piece of media has a hidden agenda or a motive to program my kids, Shannon is unapologetically wholesome.
She embodies Christian family values and a heart for protecting the pure joy of childhood innocence. When I hand a Fassa Tails book to my kids, or let them do a craft alongside Shannon on YouTube, I know their imaginations are being fueled by goodness, not by the latest trends or sociopolitical issues. Knowing I can entrust my children to Planet Fassa gives me the peace of mind to simply enjoy the stories alongside them.
