Kirk Cameron released his newest children’s book with the intention of speaking directly into “times of turmoil.”
Partnering with publisher Brave Books, Cameron’s third faith-based children’s book, The Fox, The Fair, and the Invention Scare, details the journey of a young giraffe who is faced with the decision of helping or letting an enemy fail while both compete in an invention contest.

Amid political, ideological, and religious divides across the world, Cameron told the Washington Examiner that he desires to help families and children reflect on why there are such divisions.
“We have generations of people hating each other, and they don’t even know why they hate each other,” Cameron told the Washington Examiner. “They’re just listening and parading narratives that have come down to them from other people.”
Cameron called upon others to consider God’s love as a path to peace.
“When we can recognize that God loved us when we were His enemies through our pride and rebellion, that changes us,” the former Growing Pains star said. “And now we can extend an olive branch to other people.”

“If we get that into the hearts and minds of children now, they can teach us a lesson by loving those who we disagree,” he added. “I’ve got to do a better job at loving my enemies and extending an olive branch to people who hate me.”
The book comes as the ninth in the third saga of Brave Book’s Freedom Island series.
