Muniz has always utilized his signature character Felipe (a cute but anxious, pastel bunny) as an ambassador of mental health awareness, but with this latest project he has created a forum for kids and their parents to begin a conversation without apprehension. “I believe that one of the most important ways to battle mental illness is speaking up,” Juan Muniz says.

The book, “I’m Not Ok” allows us to realize that we are not alone in our thoughts. “These illustrations helped me as I created them because they are based on the emotions I feel and go through on a daily basis.” Juan says, “Hopefully these pieces of art and the accompanying text can reach those who feel lost, and be as therapeutic for them as this process has been for me.”

Lily L. ★★★★★

Felipe’s worried little face felt like it was speaking directly to me when I flipped through the pages with my niece, and the way the book opens up a real conversation about feelings without being preachy is exactly what we needed. She asked me to read it twice in one sitting, which says everything.

The soft pastel illustrations and Felipe's anxious little face made my kid actually stop and listen during story time, which never happens. It's rare to find a picture book that treats heavy feelings so gently without talking down to children.
