Rose the Owl Plush🦉

Created by Acorn Cottage Press

Creating a Rose the Owl Plush Stuffed Animal from the book "Why Me, Mama?" Acorn Cottage Press's mission is to create authentic and empowering disability representation for children. My hope is to donate Rose the Owl plushies to disabled children.

A new story from Acorn Cottage Press: The Snow Globe
about 1 month ago – Sat, Sep 26, 2026 at 08:17:37 AM

Hi everyone,
I wanted to share what we’re making next—and thank you again for helping bring our earlier books and characters to life.


The Snow Globe is a holiday picture book about woodland friends who set out to make a gift for someone who is always giving to others. We’re creating a signed, limited edition hardcover designed to become part of a family’s holiday traditions. The book also includes a make-your-own snow globe activity.


Our BackerKit campaign has five days left and is currently $1,229 from its $2,500 goal. You can pledge for a signed copy, choose a three-book bundle to share, or help us donate books to children spending the holidays in the hospital.


If this story sounds like one you’d enjoy sharing, I’d love to have you join us again. And if you know someone who loves holiday picture books, passing along the link would mean a great deal.
The campaign ends Thursday, October 1 at 4 p.m. Eastern.
Thank you for continuing to support Acorn Cottage Press and the stories we get to create together.

So excited about Rose Owl Plush's arrival. I have already done two trips to the post office to mail everyone's owls and other goodies and I have a few more trips to go. I am waiting to ship all packages to backers in Massachusetts in hopes that you will be able to attend the book launch + pick up party!!! See Invite Below!

*If you live in MA and know that you won't be able to make it to the party, please send me a message at [email protected] or on Insta @acorn_cottage_press and I will get your packages shipped out. 

Thank you all for your support!

Apologies for the lack of update for awhile - the school year, the holidays, and all the childhood sicknesses have been kicking my butt! The process took a bit longer than expected but Rose owl is done, passed her safety certification, gorgeous, and on its way!!! If you haven't completed your survey - please do. I will be mailing Rose owl out to backers as soon as they arrive. I will also be having a pick up party and would love to see you there - will set a date for that when I know exactly when I will have the Rose owls here.
