[ in the works ]

A children’s book series.

Whimsical stories for the conversations grown-ups find hardest to start — written to help kids feel seen, understood, and a little less alone.

The best part: reading them together.

[ what it’s about ]

Big feelings, gently told.

A collection of stories written to help families talk about the things that are tough to bring up — big worries, grief, and the feelings that are hard to name. Through lovable characters, humor, and a whole lot of heart, each book makes room for the conversations that help kids feel understood.

[ why these stories ]

Because kids feel everything first.

Years of expressive-arts work with children and teens taught me the same thing again and again: when words feel too heavy, a story can carry them. These books are little bridges — for a worried night, a big loss, a feeling nobody has a name for yet — so no child has to hold it alone.

Want the stories read aloud, in person? That’s what the shows are for.
